MyDocs in normal mode is fat32 and user:users installation of n9qt create some folders in MyDocs without any problem. Try to add user:users to MyDocs like Ancelad suggested you.

The output from: `mount|grep MyDocs'
And from: `ls -ld ~user/MyDocs'
Mine is:
Code:
mount|grep MyDocs /dev/mmcblk0p1 on /home/user/MyDocs type ext4 (rw,relatime,barrier=1,data=ordered) ls -ld ~user/MyDocs drwxr-xr-x 24 user users 4096 Sep 9 21:38 /home/user/MyDocs

When I am installing things via dpkg or apt-get I'm usually logged into the N9 from my PC via ssh to root. Maybe the credentials are different then, I don't know.
EDIT: Nope. I just tried ssh into device as developer and then devel-su and root still cannot write to ~user/MyDocs. I am still convinced that aegis-exec is the right answer.

Here is mine. Do you use ext2manager?
But I see why you don't get the same errors as I do with N9QT, the permissions on your MyDocs directory are messed up... world writable, group is root. That is why root can write to your MyDocs.
In fact, if you were to try the suggestion you gave me... `chown -R user:users MyDocs', you would see the bug I reported with N9QT.

Schturman,
I think SteveYoungs has a point. Since MyDocs is a fat32 partition it has no permissions hence both root and user can access it. However if someone formats it to ext3/4 they are going to face the problem he states due to it being a user partition and like we know root in normal mode is unable to write to /home/user. The same thing would happen to the MyDocs partition.
For future proofing N9QT, I think his suggestion is worth implementing.
Just my 2c...
