[LUG] Permission Not Granted In Ubuntu

 


Posted by "Berry Christopher" <christopher.berry1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>


Dear Friends,
This will probably seem low brow to many of you but - When I am working in Ubuntu in 
Terminal the following is happening -- when I apt-get etc etc I am asked for the 
password which I give and all is well until I cp when I am told I do not have 
permission to edit files!!I do not understand this!! How do I get round this problem 
as I am being driven silly! I am trying to install my scanner and unless I can pop 
the Windows file esfw41.bin into /etc/sane.d I am done for!
Is there a brainbox out there?
Cheers,
Christopher Berry.
