Ubuntu :: Terminal In 9.10 Cannot Access Download Folder When Installing
Feb 17, 2010
Tried to install Compiz settings manager today.
Fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 with all the new upgrades.
When i type in: sudo apt-get install compiz-settings-manager, I get this response.
E: Fr ikke lst /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Klarer ikke lse nedlastingsmappa
E: Can not lock /car/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11: Re.........)
E: Can not access download file
I am trying to access a folder through the terminal but I am not sure how.
For example, I can access the documents by typing cd Documents. BUT I do not know how I can access a folder that for example has a long name like: scangearm-mp-250series-1.60-1deb.tar.gz
Ubuntu and am using the 64bit version of Ubuntu 10.04.Now I can access the folders in my home folder through the places GUI, but I can't access them in the terminal. When I begin typing in the terminal and press tab it does not autocomplete, and typing the directory manually says that there is no such file or directory, even though when I type dir or ls they are clearly there.
I had to reformat my hard drive because I was trying to run windows 7 and ubuntu 10.10 on the same drive which caused many problems. After re-installing ubuntu 10.10 alone I noticed that I no longer had access to any of the "Places" sub menus, Home folder through Ubuntu one.
I cannot change directory to a more than three folder tree destination folder from ~ in terminal. I've checked everything. No Typos or misspell. The destination folder was recognized by "ls" command but when I went to it, the terminal said, "no such file or directory."
I basically am hoping for a line of bash script I can put into "Open With" for folders so I can get a terminal with the right path. I hate manually typing in paths to places when I am looking right at them in nautilus. "gnome-terminal" doesn't work - it just opens a terminal to ~.
I'm using ubuntu server 9.10 for a home build NAS. Everything is working great just have one more thing to figure out. I have Samba set up to access my files and I set up a recycle feature so anything deleted will get moved to a Recycled folder. (I learned this the hard way after hitting delete key by accident while browsing the shares in windows. Lost 100 GB of data)
Now it is for the most part working but the permissions on folders isn't getting set right. If I delete a file in a share I can go to Recycle bin folder and delete the file for good. But if I delete a folder I can not access that folder to delete or restore from the Recycle bin folder. I have to chmod the folder before I can do anything with it. Anything I can change to get folders deleted via windows to have the right permissions when it is moved to the Recycle bin folder?
I want to give a mounted folder /mnt/folder access so that 'root and the group test have read write access' and all other users have read access I understand most of the chmod command, the users groups world etc but where in the 'command' do you specify which 'group' or 'user' you are giving the read / write access to? in all the tutorials i've seen no where do you specify the actual group or user.
I've created a new user for a SSH tunnel only.After login I can access all directories because permissions is set for "Others" to "Access files".Now my question: Is this normal that permissions for Folder access for "Others" is always set to "Access files"?I don't want my SSH tunnel user accessing the directories.
I am using hotmail as my main email and want to setup the evolution as my default email client.but for some reason it couldnt download my folders which are on the server.it only downloads the mail from the inbox.is there any workaround for this.also if i switch to thunderbird would it be able to download the folder from hotmail??
Anyone know of an app that can auto sort my download folder. The problem is I use torrents and do not want applications stuck with movies, stuck with music. Is there an application that looks at the file extension and moves files accordingly? I know windows has Digital janitor but I do not believe it is supported in linux.
I have just installed qBittorrent with terminal with apt-get but I do not know where I can find it besides the Launcher and the panel on the top of the screen.

running 9.10 trying to run applications on Wine. I have a problem with my diabetes software as Bayer Glucofacts requires Java Runtime Envirionment 1.6.0_07 or higher to install.I suspect that I would need to download and install JRE through a terminal window? I have done some with YUM but cannot figure out how to yet with Ubuntu.
I had been uploading pictures from camera to download fold. Had a lot in there. Thought right click delete would just delete the pictures. Deleted folder too.
I had a folder named "Rage Against the Machine" in my Home directory which contained a bunch of music files. I opened my Terminal window and planned on moving it to a folder named "Downloads" inside my home folder, so I used this command:
Code: sudo mv "Rage Against The Machine" /Downloads
Now I can't actually find the folder inside Downloads, which I think it should be. so I even tried running this to find it:
Code: locate "Rage Against The Machine"
and it couldn't find it either.
Where did it go??
The folder size was approximately 837.6 MB in size total.
I would like to open a folder using the terminal. In case of confusion, I dont mean to cd into the folder, but a command that opens the GUI of the folder.
i have downloaded some series into my download folder. apparently i did that as root (cant remember how but ok)now i want to delete some of the folders, but i dont have acces. i tried everything. deleting it while as root, using the command line : " sudo rm -R <folder> was the closest i got and i actually succesfully removed one folder. now the problem is that it was a folder named usr, one word. but when i try to delete a folder with more words, its trying to delete all those words seperatly, like ecery word is a different folder.

Yahoo! is shutting down Geocities and I need to download all the files in my webfolder there, is there a program that will download all the files there automatically
This query is about Machine # 1 - Asus P5Q Deluxe, C2Duo 3.0GHZ, 4.0 GB ram, nVidia 8500, openSUSE 11.2 64-bit, KDE 4.3.5I am having a little concern about the way Dolphin file manager behaves in the 64 bit openSUSE and am wondering if there is a solution for it.Every file I download from the net goes into a 'Check' folder, and I check it over before moving it to it's proper place.In the 32bit version nSuse 11.2, I can watch files being downloaded to that 'Check' folder. I call this realtime file postingIn the 64 bit openSUSE 11.2, I have to close the 'Check' folder and reopen it to see the downloaded file, so, everytime I download something, I have to close and reopen the 'Check' folder. It does not post the file to the folder until the folder has been closed and reopened.I have checked the settings of both machines for Dolphin file manager and see nothing [apparently] different, yet this still persists.
