If you have a bare minimum gentoo server and like using screen, here's a tip after the recent security update to 4.0.3. If you get the error message

Code:
/var/run/screen must have mode 777


when trying to start screen with

Code:
screen -R


you will have to remerge screen with the useflag 'multiuser' activated. It worked without the useflag up to version 4.0.2-r4.

Cheers, geta
