Recent commentsSet the suid bit
I found after version 1.5.1 or so it is necessary for me to set the program's suid bit for it to run properley for anyone other than root. Do a "chmod +s /usr/local/bin/xmovie" to fix this. This is applicable to any linux system. My kernel of refference is 2.4.3 as of xmovie version 1.7
