can someone tell me how to use hidden folders such as share.Would you recomend an allternative file manager?.Trying to change menu transisions and cant get at the share folder.Any helps good cheers.

Either use the command line (recommended) or Midnight Commander (may be in devel).

command line lol no chance i aint got a clue my 900 is my first foray in anything other that windows lol.Thanx

Command line is not hard to learn. Here are some quick tips:

Command --> Result
pwd --> Tells you your 'present working directory'.

ls --> Lists contents of current directory.

ls -a --> Lists everything in current directory, including hidden files.

cd SomeDirectory --> Goes from your current directory to a child directory named SomeDirectory (if it exists)

cd .. --> Goes from your current directory to the parent directory.

rm SomeFile --> Deletes the file named SomeFile.

rmdir SomeDirectory --> Deletes SomeDirectory.

mv something somethingnew --> moves or renames something to somethingnew.

cp something somethingnew --> copies something to somethingnew.

Those are most of the commands you will ever need to know to navigate the command line. Oh, and one more tip, when typing the name of file or directory you can use Ctrl + i to let the shell finish typing the name for you. Play with those commands a bit. It will pay in the long run.

Edit: OK one more. The * is a wild card. So in order to remove all the files in the directory named /somedir/somesubdir. You would do:

rm /somedir/somesubdir/*

or, if you are already in /somedir/somesubdir, then just do:

rm *

(Of course, always be sure that you are where you think you are.)

.Have got to the point where i need to copy over the ini file to the themed folder but all i get is cannot cretae target file.Dont know how i managed to get this far but i did and just cant get the last bit right.Any pointers ?

You are probably running into a file permissions limitation. In Linux, your regular user account is not allowed to mess with certain areas. If you are sure you want to do something in those areas you need to do it as root. You need to install a promgram called "rootsh". That program will allow you to become root when needed. Once installed enter this command to become root:

sudo gainroot

Now you have all the power to do whatever you want. Even completely destroy your installation. So, be very careful. Twice.

so i execute that then run midnight from xterm right.Whats is the command for runnin midnight from xterm?

The command is mc. However, I don't know if I trust mc enough to run it as root.

so if i gain root i can shut xterm then run midnight and i will still have root yes? or do you lose it when the window closes.sorry to sound like a noob,i am on a lerning curve lol.

you actually run mc within xterm
