So it _is_ there, but root:root owns EVERYTHING in /usr/share, so "gene" has no permissions except x. As gene, if I try to cd to samples, its a "no such file or directory" error. That, in view of the perms I can see, and which I can't copy/paste to here from that ssh -Y screen, flat does not grok...
WTH? Do I need to sudo -i, then chmod -R 777 linuxcnc? Or chown -R gene:gene /usr/share/linuxcnc? Even stranger, I did ctrl+d out of the sudo, and I can now cd anyplace in that share tree. And I can now cd to /home/gene/linuxcnc/nc_files/examples without error. Me goes wandering off, scratching what little thin grey hair I have left on my head. Seems to me that "samples" ought to be close enough to "examples" that it otter work. :) Thanks. Cheers, Gene -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
