Open a terminal, type 'sudo dolphin'. Navigate to /home/ubuntu/Desktop. Create a file, call it 'roottest', put some text in it and save. Close dolphin. The cursor does not return to the terminal until I click in the terminal and press 'return'. Type 'exit'; the terminal closes. In the Desktop folder there is now a file called 'roottest'. Properties > permissions show it belongs to root for whom it is read/write, its group is root, 'group' and 'other' only have read access. It can be edited but not subsequently saved. Right-click 'roottest' and move it to trash. Properties > permissions now show it is owned by ubuntu, its group is ubuntu, and it has only read permission for owner, group and other. Restore it. Now it belongs to root again as read/write, its group is root, group and other have read access only. I.e. it is back like it was before being moved to trash. Move it to trash again. Again, it is owned by ubuntu, its group is ubuntu, and it is read-only for owner, group and other. Empty trash. File 'roottest' is deleted. ------------------- Ubuntu 10.04 live session- Open a terminal, type 'sudo nautilus'. Navigate to /home/ubuntu/Desktop.
