This article is here to help you find your files you see in file manager but can't seem to find via terminal.
Note: power users should know how to use find, so lets keep this article beginner-friendly!
Location table
| File manager path | Real path |
|---|---|
| Nokia N900 | /home/user/MyDocs |
| Nokia N900/Documents | /home/user/MyDocs/.documents |
| Nokia N900/Images | /home/user/MyDocs/.images |
| Nokia N900/Sounds | /home/user/MyDocs/.sounds |
| Nokia N900/Videos | /home/user/MyDocs/.videos |
| Memory card | /media/mmc1 |
And if you still don't find what you're looking for, you can try to use find at terminal as following:
find /path/ -name filename*
Path can be for example / but it will give you errors if you dont have Root access. And if you don't give exact filename, remember to use wildcards(*)!
