  • I want to ask you something I really need. In my school they installed Linux but the terminal is gone. It because of the reasons students creating their own usernames, escaping from the teachers locking. So I'm asking you where can I get back the terminal. Please help me. Thank you. :)

  • @Idjoq If the administrators removed the terminal, wouldn't you get into trouble for trying to circumvent their wishes?

    There are ways to get to a terminal without having it installed, but if it's going to cause you trouble at school, I'd rather not go into it.

  • What is ''pwd'' again?

  • @Ograws "print working directory" -- shows the directory you're currently working in.

  • @thisweekinlinux Thanks do you like Urban Terror?

  • @Ograws I do. We used to play on a server run by one of the people in the community a while back, but I just haven't had time to do it lately.

  • @thisweekinlinux Not really, you can msg me. Of course I am not trying to make you troubles, but I live in Macedonia, so... Personally I first made my username because I kept school works in Text editor files. So please help me. :) thank you for your time!

  • I have leopard and I'm trying to find out how to view the folders like you did through your "places" on your tool bar. I'm in a ssh server, so how can i view my public_html files in folder view? Thanks, great videos :)

  • @CaptainAndrewWiggins I couldn't agree more with u my friend. his videos are beyond efficient. logistical masterpieces.

  • @MsSaeed28 i find it :D GVCE :)

  • can any one tell me about the program used it to record ?

  • Just out of curiosity...What keyboard are you using?

  • I cant read the terminal in this vid, too small text, not even in full screen
