Solved: Copying files and permissions Oh for goodness sakes how hard can it be ?
I want to copy a file to the /usr/src folder (I'm trying to install my modem). When I try to drag and drop I get the message "You do not have permissions to write to this folder".
I've tried the text approach using the "cp" command.....with similar results.
How do I get around this?
If anyone has any suggestions, baby language please. I'm so green when it comes to Linux I called my version "tophat" yesterday, instead of "redhat".
What a clown eh?
many thanks chaps......mel
