... but it's not in the Desktop folder, which lists other stuff
that _is_ on the desktop.

Worse: the linux-header files in the /usr/src folder are old ones,
and all the newer ones are nowhere to be found.

Background: The lenovo T420 laptop has dual operating systems,
both Triquel 7, with the second one on a separate, USB-connected
1TB hard drive.

Just pprior to the present "event" I removed the old linux-headers
files from the USB-attached file system and updated/upgraded that
system with Software Updater.

I did steps like sudo rm -r linux-headers-3.13.0-12*, followed by
sudo rm -r linux-headers-3.13.0-11* and on down until nothing but
linux-headers-3.13.0-139 and linux-headers-3.13.0-141 were left,
all while the terminal was in the /usr/src directory.

If I had been in the wrong directory while doing this and somehow
took those files out of the laptop's internal hard drive, the ones
I can see now, such as linux-headers-3.13.0-67, would have been
removed, but they're present, and linux-headers-3.13.0-139 and
linux-headers-3.13.0-141 are not on the laptops' internal hard drive.

I cannot peek at the external hard drive's operating system, such
as that hard drive's /usr/src directory, so I cannot fathom how
the laptop's /usr/src directory got its clock turned back to another
era.
