I don't know if anyone can be assitance with my problem, because it is really not directly related to knoppix nor pcs, but is related to open source. I dowloaded open office for my mac, and it has to open all that freex whatever junk when i try to use it and takes forever, so i wanted delete it. But when i tried it says its owned by root and it cannot be deleted. Does anyone know whats up?

Hello there,
I asume you are trying to delete a directory? and it is owned by root?
if that's the case, try this:
open a console type "su" without the quotes, hit enter and use your root password,
now, if you successfully logged on as root, lets say if I wanted to delete "/home/John/test/gd"
use this:
rm -rf /home/John/test/gd hit enter
Be sure not to delete "/" that will delete your whole disk
