Hi everyone,
I've been with Ubuntu for a good few months, and then my partner gave me a Kubuntu Live CD, and I'll be honest, I fell in love immediately.
I've got it dual installed with Ubuntu (incase I changed my mind, I am female after all!)
Anyway... I'll stop the gabbling.
On Ubuntu we set up shared folders on each pc we were able to see each other's shared folders and take items from them by copy and pasting, but not actually write to each others (we could obviously write to our own)
Simon (being my better half) is still using Ubuntu, he didn't want to change, so I'm basically all alone when it comes to finding out things which is why I've now come here (bearing in mind he's the one who knows all about this in the first place, whenever something broke on Ubuntu, he'd fix it for me).
*shuts herself up*
Right.. the problem now is that Simon can see my shared folder on my home directory, but I cannot see Simon's and we have NO idea how to set it up so that I can see him, he's not changed anything on his pc, so it is my end that is the problem - we cannot find where to go to set it up so that I can see Simon's Shared
Please remember that I am rather new to all this, I wasn't very good with MS Windows XP (am I allowed to say that word here?
) I was more of an.. end user type person (yes, thick :P )
So please be very gentle and very descript with your answers
Hope someone can assist me
Carol
