Someone kindly did, under the list -- saying that I would want the .wine for whoever was going to run the programs, and that rm -r would do the job for the other. So I did re -r .wine as root in root's directory; it took two or three screensful of things, checking for confirmation, and I just kept hitting y so long as it was taking them from .wine. So that part should be OK, I think. So I tried putting in the symlinks in btth's .wine -- but hit an odd line in the result, when I looked : [btth@localhost .wine]$ cd dosdevices [btth@localhost dosdevices]$ ls -alL total 20 drwxrwxr-x 2 btth btth 4096 Mar 8 10:11 . drwxrwxr-x 4 btth btth 4096 Mar 8 10:11 .. drwxrwxr-x 4 btth btth 4096 Mar 8 10:11 c: drwxr-xr-x 24 root root 4096 Mar 8 10:11 z: [btth@localhost dosdevices]$ ln -s /dev/ttyS0 com1 [btth@localhost dosdevices]$ ln -s /dev/ttyUSB0 com2 [btth@localhost dosdevices]$ ls -alL total 20 drwxrwxr-x 2 btth btth 4096 Mar 9 17:42 . drwxrwxr-x 4 btth btth 4096 Mar 8 10:11 .. drwxrwxr-x 4 btth btth 4096 Mar 8 10:11 c: crw-rw---- 1 root uucp 4, 64 Mar 6 08:00 com1 ?--------- ? ? ? ? ? com2 drwxr-xr-x 24 root root 4096 Mar 8 10:11 z: [btth@localhost dosdevices]$ Why is it claiming 20 and only showing me six? More disturbingly, what is that next to last line with all the question marks??
