An easy way around this is go open an xterm

cd /opt/smartcam_m5/bin
touch smartcam_m5.conf
chmod 777 smartcam_m5.conf

I still cannot get load to work, even the right permissions, which like Bratag I expected to work. I also placed a conf file in the opt/smartcam_m5/bin folder - no go. It is a plain text file right, not xml?

BTW, the conf file may be better placed in home/user/.config/smartcam_m5/??
