    your screenshot dosent tell mutch......like file names.

    but if thare in a folder and you dont mind removing the HOLE folder.....

    it's
    Code:
    sudo rm -rf foldername
    and poof it's gone.........as long as your in the dir that contanes the folder.

    uther wise you nead to spesafyi the path to the folder IE:/home/documents/savedstuff/foldertodelet

    but you should have ben abel to do that from dolphin!!!!....??

          OK, I was in a bit of a sarcastic mood, and I'm not normally like this, but I suggest a spell check in the future...

              Hey Vinny, I got a brother, age 58, who is the same way when it comes to spelling (but he has made more money than I have, even in the same business!). Don't worry about your spelling, pal, we need your Linux expertise here!!!
