already tried that bro, file is still not symlinked
the xterm output keeps giving me:
ln: rtcom-messaging-ui: File exists

Read your PM :P

If file exists, then you have to delete it, if you want your symlink back...
A symlink contains no information except the "pointer" to the linked file

im enjoying all this linux stuff, a few days ago i was terrified of it all
