You can check by going to the parent directory of the download location and using the ls -l command. So, if your download location is /home/user/MyDocs/cuteTube, you enter

Code:
cd /home/user/MyDocs/
then

Code:
ls -l
This will give you a list of permissions for any files or directories within MyDocs.

Another way of checking would be to simply attempt to move or copy a file to the download directory. If it fails, then you know there is a problem.

There is a nice walkthrough on fixing N900 filesystem errors at http://www.adminlinux.org/2010/04/no...-readonly.html
