[e-users] Cannot rename directories.
Fully intending to kick Windows off of my PC, I have been looking at a few Linux distros recently. Bodhi is one and it, of course, uses Enlightenment as it's window manager. Running the OS - both versions 2.4 (E17) and 3.0rc1 (E19) - from live CD's I have found it impossible to change the name of a directory; this seems to hold whether I create the directory myself or attempt to alter the name of an existing one. Does anyone know of a cause or reason for this? Could it be the fact I am running from Live CD's? Might it be a permissions problem? Or maybe something else.

[e-users] X requirements
I tried to compile the latest releases. - xprint is optional in efl, but the configure *requires* it. - I can build efl and elementary without X, but elementary *requires* it.

Mick, he mentioned he is using Bhodi. Bodhi 2.4 uses E17 as desktop, while Bodhi3 uses E19 2014-06-22 5:40 GMT-03:00 Mick michaelkintz...@gmail.com: On Sunday 22 Jun 2014 09:08:32 Mark Beardsley wrote: Fully intending to kick Windows off of my PC, I have been looking at a few Linux distros recently.

The OS is some Linux distribution, not e17 or e19, which are different versions of the Enlightenment desktop environment. How exactly are you trying to change the name of a directory? Can you give an example of the commands that you are running? Does anyone know of a cause or reason for this? Could it be the fact I am running from Live CD's? Might it be a permissions problem? Or maybe something else. You wouldn't be able to make changes on the LiveCD filesystem, because it is a read only iso, but you should be able to make changes on any mounted filesystems on the PC that you are running the iso - as long as you are trying to make such changes as the same user you mounted the fs with. e.g. running as root: # mkdir /mnt/sda3 # mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/sda3 # mkdir /mnt/sda3/my_dir_1 # mv /mnt/sda3/my_dir_1 /mnt/sda3/my_dir_2 If you then tried to make changes as a different user, e.g. knoppix, you will find that knoppix does not have the appropriate access rights to modify the mounted filesystem. Also, many LiveCDs automount filesystems as read only, so you could try remounting the filesystem as rw. In any case, on an installed OS you will be able to automount the filesystem with rw access rights as a plain user and make changes to it, as long as you have installed udisks.

If this only happens with Bhodi, then Jeff should be around soon to offer more specific advice. -- Regards, Mick -- HPCC Systems Open Source Big Data Platform from LexisNexis Risk Solutions Find What Matters Most in Your Big Data with HPCC Systems Open Source.

[e-users] Error setting icon for app
I just tried to set a custom icon, and got the error: Failed to create directory: /opt/efl/share/enlightenment/icons . Check that you have correct permissions set. Wouldn't this first try to create something in my home folder?

The double-slash ( in my home directory ) is in the config. Also this folder actually exists. I can make /opt/efl/share/enlightenment/icons writable for now ...
