I was trying different solutions last night, but nothing worked. [23:43] xubuntu78w: Still on, awaiting who owns your /home . What shows ' ls -al /home ' ? [23:45] I am not sure what you mean. [23:47] xubuntu78w: Pastebin ' ls -al /home ' . See where we go from there .. Last night was a question of you needing to do the bad thing of "sudo" in your own home .. NO no . [23:58] xubuntu78w: In terminal type ' ls -al /home | nc termbin.com 9999 '. The result is a URL back in the terminal, Pass that link back here.
