Options are to "Disable" or "Fix" (or "Decide Later" to change nothing). Hi Alain, I had thought, actually, that "Fix" was no longer an option.

After the restart Mac OS X send this message dot thef the kernel extention myKern The permission, owner and group of the kernel extention files seem exactly the same after and before the "Fix". Do I miss something ? The general rules for kexts are that all items be owned by root:wheel (uid:gid is 0:0) and that nothing be writable except by root. That usually translates to mode 755 for directories and 644 for files. If you specify "fix" and restart, do you get the same message again, i.e. did "fix" cure the problem?
