If you don't have a file manager like Emelfm2, in the terminal: "cd $HOME/.tuxpaint/saved/" (without quotes).

Then you can open them with an image viewer, copy them somewhere else, etc.

super thank you, if that works, wow

Re: view path /home/user/.tuxpaint/saved/
 

it did not work? -sh: cd: can't cd to /home/user/.tuxpaint/saved/ i'll try and install emelfm2

Re: view path /home/user/.tuxpaint/saved/

thanks

Re: view path /home/user/.tuxpaint/saved/
 

Try to go step by step:
1.) cd /home/user
2.) cd .tuxpaint
3.) cd saved

You can check then where the problem is.

Re: view path /home/user/.tuxpaint/saved/
 

this is what happened

~$ cd /home/user
~$ cd /.tuxpaint
-sh: cd: can't cd to /.tuxpaint

hmmmmmmmmmmm i'll google it and see what it comes up

but any wisdom would be great

Re: view path /home/user/.tuxpaint/saved/
 

That path does not exist on your system, so you can't go there.

I think tuxpaint stores its data on one of the mmcs, anyway.

Re: view path /home/user/.tuxpaint/saved/
 

i don't even know what a mmcs is, i guse it's something to do with memory, google suggested several things including a school in china i belive, maybe i should just buy a touch screen laptop?.... one final thing, [for tonight anyway] the gimp.... anyone know ora link to a download that should work on a n800? the dowmload i tryed failed to work, so i'll try that download on a n810 now.

Re: view path /home/user/.tuxpaint/saved/
 

mmc
They're mounted at /media/mmc1 and /media/mmc2; look there.

Re: view path /home/user/.tuxpaint/saved/
 

/.tuxpaint would be in your root directory... almost certainly wont exist.
from /home/user you may have more luck without the leading /
e.g. cd .tuxpaint
If it exists.

When you're in terminal you can use the 'ls' command to view what is there.
Note: files/directories with leading dots (.tuxpaint for example) won't show running ls with default options, so try ls -a (shows all files), ls -l (shows file properties etc) or ls -al (a combination of the two).

Re: view path /home/user/.tuxpaint/saved/
 

i got it working.

the problem was that you have to have a memory card installed for it to save the drawings. you click save... do more drawing save again........ but it only saves if the memory card is inserted. someone needs to do a pop up window that explains this to the user

Re: view path /home/user/.tuxpaint/saved/
 

i eventually got it working, for you informattion you have to have a memory card inserted
