tar -xvvf flashplayer_10_plugin_debug.tar.gz tar: flashplayer_10_plugin_debug.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
Is what terminal says. It's clearly on the desktop though so where am I going wrong here?
Bev.
Type (not the #):
# pwd
to print your current directory. If the file is on your desktop, then you need to be in /home/bev/Desktop or somewhere similar. You can change directory with cd:
# cd /home/bev/Desktop
You can see the files in your current directory by doing an ls:
# ls
Once you see the file listed in the output from ls, you may need to use a ./ to let linux know it needs to look in the current directory (.):
# tar -xzvf ./flashplayer_10_plugin_debug.tar.gz
HTH,
Peter.
