8.10 directory structure

[nesta]

In addition to the yet to be fixed harddrive issues(http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/inde...6750#msg156750), here is another 8.10 annoyance.

I can't, using Konsole, navigate to my home directory without going through this hoop:

". .. .directory" and then my login name.

What are the '.' doing there, and how can I get rid of them. They were not there before the upgrade.

Thanks!

Not to sure what you mean but I am able to get to my home drive with the cd ~ command.
I was able to start at root / and cd all the way to my home.

I don't understand the problem either. nesta, could you perhaps explain it in a different way or even better post the example? We can only help if we understand...

All you need to type is:

cd ~

That takes you directly to your home directory. In fact, you can do it with even fewer keystrokes with:

cd

cd from the console will always take you back to your home folder.
