Anyway, in the end it makes no difference who put the file there .
Why not simply change read/write permissions to 666 if needed... and let the devil be in the detail.

So I added a check for /home/user/nohup.out every time user logs into a server in the network - to make sure nohup can handle the file.... should do it.

Ah, and I had forgotten to link this feature with the wifi pm setting "keep off: yes/no" - done now.

If the fix and the feature work, I'll have to leave it at that. Time is eating me up a bit (even a bit more). Of course, reporting a bug is welcome at any time.

v2.1.0 will be uploaded to Extras-devel if there are no more obstacles occurring. I think it can be promoted to Extras-testing.

@xes ...please test the fix in v2.1.0-rc2.
