Question #78539 on kdebase in ubuntu changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase/+question/78539
actionparsnip proposed the following answer: yes, / is the lowest folder and is called root. You have a massive hill to climb now. You will have to read forums on what ownerships files and folders have and apply them to the ENTIRE system. I suggest you cut your loses and reinstall, you can restore your user data from your backups if home is not on a seperate partition. If you fancied trying to get it working you could always boot to live cd as the live environment is sysnonymous with an installed one, you can then make a note of the ownerships and apply them to your system. Nearly all the files and folders outside of your home directory are owned by root:root but their are some files and folders that have slight differences which you must accommodate for. -- You received this question notification because you are a member of UF Unanswered Posts Team, which is an answer contact for Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
