I think I've found the problem. And its probably not really a bug. I selected the folder and want to set the bits for permissions from the files in this folder. This doesn't work. Every time I select the menu for file-permission it jumps back to "--" (because its a folder and not a file).
But it would be nice to be able to set mode bits for files in a folder recursively with nautilus. How ever, if I open the folder and select all files (and folders) from this folder I'm able to set the bits for files and folders. -- Can't change file mode bits with nautilus https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/652847 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
