making every file and directory 777. I've created a user named gambas and
everything completely open.

Now, I know it has to do with permissions because if I run "sudo gambas3"
it will work!
Now, if I set the user id bit (chmod u+s gambas3, for instance), it does
not work.

How come?

Every single directory and file is rwxrwxrwd. They all belong to me (owner
and group).

This issue has mystified me for several months now. I had settled down and
accepted the idea of keeping using the virtual machine to do the editing.
Until this morning, when someone else refered to the same issue.
