You know how to rename something in gmc, yes? You do that in the properties of a file, by editing the name and then clicking okay. The edit widget there becomes a ghost item in this startling case. Try to reproduce what I do there. The permissions on parent are irrelevant. That's a vfat filesystem. Permissions are same everywhere anyway if you wonder. orion:exa$ cat /etc/fstab | grep vfat /dev/hda2 /win vfat defaults,user,exec,suid 1 0 /dev/hdb1 /data vfat defaults,user,rw,exec,gid=105,umask=002 1 0 /dev/sda4 /zip vfat defaults,user,exec,rw,noauto 0 0 /dev/sda1 /zip/ppa-bug vfat defaults,user,exec,rw,noauto 0 0 that happens to be data and gid 105 is windows !!! -- Eray (exa) Ozkural Comp.
