I also consider myself a Linux-noob, so I have no idea of best/recommended approach, my solution in such cases is opening terminal and executing "sudo nautilus" (it will prompt for Your password). It will open a file manager window with a root access, which allows moving/copying etc files also in system folders, where I usually get only read-only access. -- Viesturs If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Get 100% visibility into Java/.NET code with AppDynamics Lite It's a free troubleshooting tool designed for production Get down to code-level detail for bottlenecks, with <2% overhead.
