Have you booted off CD or a HD install ?Originally Posted by Smoke187
Hi I am a Linux NooB, I just downloaded filmgimp (filmgimp-0.16.tar), and I can't get it to run. I read the installation file and when I try to make a directory on my linux drive(I keep getting permission denied, even though I set the drive to be writable) I just wanna know how to set all my drives to be writables.[/quote]

It's usually a good idea to start your own thread rather than tacking an off topic post on an existing thread. That said....
To find out the status of your drives simply type:Originally Posted by Smoke187
mount
/dev/hda10 on /mnt/hda10 type ext3 (rw,nosuid,nodev)
rw = read/write
To get a drive to mount automatically on boot simply add it to /etc/fstab
/dev/hda10 /mnt/hda10 ext3 auto,users,exec 0 0
You can only make directories in your own /home unless you are root.
Sorry guy I did what u told me, and I(Sorry for that) still can't get my drive to be writable here's my fsab file info:
# /etc/fstab: filesystem table.
#
# filesystem mountpoint type options dump pass
/dev/hdb5 / ext2 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/hda1 none swap sw 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/fd0 /floppy vfat defaults,user,noauto,showexec,umask=022 0 0
/dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noexec,noauto 0 0
/dev/dvd /dvd iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noexec,noauto 0 0
/dev/cdaudio /cdaudio iso9660 defaults,ro,user,noexec,noauto 0 0
