Re: xterm.
 

You are probably not in the right directory. Where is the file?

Oh, and kill the Application Manager if its running.

sudo .... if you are setup like a Linux box should be. Is all you need. Also too if you have installed openssh or otherwise set a root password su works too, however the permissions aren't set correctly by default on maemoOS's.
