I installed the Maemo Audio Tag Tool and when I try to open an MP3 file for tagging, the Tag Tool accessed the whole UNIX file system. This leads me to a bunch of questions:

1. Does the file access functions of Audio Tag Tool run at root access level?

2. Does the file access functions of Audio Tag Tool make calls to the native N810 file manager?

3. Does the native file manager of the N810 run at root access level? For that matter can root level tasks be doen on the N810 without some special way of enabling root level access?

4. With Audio Tag Tool, I can't find my MP3s in the normal data directories (that can be accessed with the file manager) because all I can see is the UNIX file/directory structure. What are the mount points for the normal data directories on the internal and external memory cards?

And one more question...
I downloaded Shine for OS2008 which is a high speed mp3 encoder. It uncompresses to a file structure like this: usr/local/bin/shine.
How can I get she shine bin file into the corresponding path on my N810? Can I just drop it in there?
Also will I have to edit some path variable somewhere so that shine can be easily accessed from a command line?

Hi;
This might be obvious or inapplicable, but I always thought that ps will show the privilege of a process:

Nokia-N810-51-3:~# ps -ef | grep gconf
772 messagebus 3324 SW /usr/lib/gconf2/gconfd-2
1512 root 21596 SW gconf-editor
The above shows that gconf-editor is running as root.
