I have seen this problem, and you are right: it does usually relate
to file permissions.  Make sure that all notes directories are
owned by {notes,notes}, and have user and group permissions.
Also make sure that "notes" itself is owned by {notes,notes} and
does a set-group-id.  You might also check your passwd entry for
the "notes" user:  the HOME directory should be where your notes
utilities reside, since some notes commands look there to determine
where LIBDIR is.

It has been a while since I had this same problem, so I might have
missed something obvious.  If none of these things help, let me
know, and I'll do a more thourough head-scratch!  Good luck.
