First 'ls' is made as 'brainworker' - normal user. I am owner of both files (cache and config-en_US.UTF-8). Time of modification is Mar 3 20:58. Then 'su' Then launch of emelfm2 Then closing program. Then loging out. And then again 'ls' as normal user. Time of modification of both files is changed - Mar 3 20:59. And...
