<EM>&gt; &gt; Can you give me one good reason why xsane should be run as root?
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Because the Linux owner has not created any other users. Many have
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; absolutely no need to do so.
</EM><BR>
<P>Oh, then I think it is time to give them a reason! ;-)
<BR>
<P>In fact there are lots of reasons not to run everything as root.
<BR>
You loose a lot of advantages/safety when you do everything as root.
<BR>
Then you can use windows too.
