Disk utility report on my mbp worries me

[italidesign]

I loaded the console and pulled the log from disk utility and I'm at loss as to why these aspects of the permissions cant be fixed. Any reasons as to why? heres the log:

Any ideas why these aspects wont be fixed? I'm worried its making my system a little moody.

Thanks


P.S. I am running leopard. 10.5.1

Try this:

1. Boot from your install disk.

2. Then select Disk Utilities.

3. Repair permissions.

4. Repair the disk.

The SUID portion can be explained by this.

Okay that explains the SUID part. I'm hoping 10.5.2 will make that go away. I did boot to the dvd and did a permissions fix there and I inpsected the disk and no errors were to be found.

Thanks for pointing that out!

ACL found but not expected How to repair disk permissions

In Leopard 10.5.1 this error keeps cropping up (ACL...) when trying to repair disk permissions using the disk utility. I have DiskWarrior and just checked for an update and EUREKA the new version 4.1 claims to address permissions problems directly!
