Re: Permissions

Regular users (just about everyone) cannot modify folders except for their own (/home/username, for example). You need root privileges to be able to modify other folders (/usr, /var, /etc). If you know the terminal command for what you want to do (cp, mv, etc.) then just preface the command with the word sudo. If you prefer to copy things graphically, run the command
