In /dev/ I have these permissions:

erm, how exactly did hdc get the filename owner of ricardo?
[root@Azothoth /dev]# ls -l fd0 brw-rw---- 1 ricardo floppy 2, 0 Apr 14 2001 fd0
The same for floppy?
Have you done something very odd to your machine? it really does appear so!
abower@dylan:/dev$ ls -l hda brw-rw---- 1 root disk 3, 0 Oct 12 23:37 hda abower@dylan:/dev$ ls -l fd0 brw-rw---- 1 root floppy 2, 0 Aug 8 00:10 fd0 abower@dylan:/dev$
is what mine look like! You may have done something quite bad to your machine, I can't tell exactly what tho?! but the permissions appear to be rather screwed
Sorry I can't be more helpful, but have you done something to you machine like 'chown -R ricardo *' in / ?? (please don't type this command on your linux box, if you do it will break)
