Hello,

I have installed sbcl & slime on 64-bit RH EL 5 (as root).  I can run
slime fine as root, but not as other users.  Here is the transcript of
the slime session:

This is SBCL 1.0.14, an implementation of ANSI Common Lisp.

debugger invoked on a SB-INT:SIMPLE-FILE-ERROR:

Any clue as to what is not correctly set-up?  Should each user have
its own version of slime, or is a system wide one ok?

Thank you,

Mirko
