[driverloader] no IPv6 routers present

Hi,

for the permissions under SuSE, since this is an issue which can be 
specific to SuSE, I do not have a definitive answer on that.

The only thing I can tell you is that the init. scripts are run by root 
so the ownership of the files does not matter when the wireless device 
is activated on boot. In other words, the permission chance is likely 
not needed to be able to activate the device on boot.

Regards,
