Why can't you allow users to download your client directly on your website? I don't use anything made by google or apple. So where I could download your apps?

Anyway I think I'm gonna switch back to windows. Linux is just too complicated for me!
I understand you. I'm sure this problem is not too difficult to solve. In an interactive session where I could run commands, it would have been faster. If you have enough time, I would suggest taking some Linux course on your own. I think I am going to install some LInux distro on hard disk, when I will buy a second computer. Maybe installing it on an external USB device requires too many steps to work in a proper way...

I get this: touch: cannot touch ‘/cdrom/t’: Permission denied
You have changed to Linux Mint. As root: id mint # Result: (for example) uid=1000(mint) gid=1000(mint) .... Get the uid=? and gid=? values from the previous command and replace it in the next command. As root, post the results here: mount mount -o remount,rw,uid=1000,gid=1000 /dev/sdb1 /cdrom mount su mint touch /cdrom/permissions.txt I guess you have rebooted the machine and the external hard disk was not remount correctly before running touch, or maybe, your UID is not 999 now, getting forbidden permissions error. The more things you post details about, the better for me and other users to solve your problem. Uid and gid values are the same as before: 999. Anyway I think I'm gonna switch back to windows. Linux is just too complicated for me! Yet I would like to thank you very much, bitmix.in. You have been very kind trying to help me. If you write down your address I will send you a tip, anyway

Without a defining killer app, I am confident that Bitcoin will, in fits and starts, inevitably return to its 2009 levels. It would be pointless to guess how long that process will take; or when that killer app will appear although I am also confident it will appear at some entirely unpredictable point.
I'm easily old enough to remember the very early days of personal computers. I remember a story from The Wall Street Journal in which a reporter interviewed a small-business owner (I think an auto-repair shop) who had bought an Apple II. The reporter asked the man what he thought of his purchase. The man stared glumly at the Apple for a moment and then sourly commented: "The damn thing just sits there."
Exactly. The world was just never going to buy into a command-prompt environment in a really big way. But the Mac came along and then the world began to change. (Be like the Mac! Bill Gates commanded his troops developing Windows 95.) And so it will be with Bitcoin. The world will never buy into it until an environment comes along that makes it easier, safer, and a lot more fun to use. Until then, the price will suffer periodic whale-dumps and then sort of bounce, spurt, and finally just roll along long enough for people to start talking (again) about "Bitcoin's recent price stability." And then yet another whale-dump will splash the water and the retroactively obvious cycle will begin again.
Perfectly agreed. I think the main problem for Bitcoin is that it is too complicated for the medium user. Moreover it needs an internet connection, which isn't always available in every place. I hope the killer app will be an easy way for offline payments, something like physical coins, better than the Casascius ones.

Don't forget that most of the world population doesn't use Internet. So in my opinion it would be a very bad thing if "physical" money will be forced to disappear. The best scenario is that it should be a free choice between digital and physical money, so that everyone would choose the better option by himself.

Did you try: mount -o remount,rw,uid=999,gid=999 /dev/sdb1 /cdrom If that command is successful, post ls -al command result and try to create a file in /cdrom as a regular user: echo testing > /cdrom/permissions-test.txt No, this command is unsuccessful. I have to add I recently switched from Ubuntu to Linux Mint 17.2. Anyway I still haven't solved this issue. I haven't used Linux Mint, but I understand that it's still downstream of debian. In any case, certainly things like mounting drives and reading/writing from them is going to be the same. On topic, you said the command was unsuccessful, can you cut-n-paste the exact response from the shell? I get nothing at all. mint@mint ~ $ sudo su mint mint # mount -o remount,rw,uid=999,gid=999 /dev/sdb1 /cdrom mint mint #
That actually means success You should be about to rerun "mount" without any arguments to see that /dev/sdb1 is mounted on /cdrom rw. Cheers! EDIT: for your own education, in general UNIX command return 0 upon success. The return code from the last command is stored in your shell as $?. If you say "echo $?" you can see the return code of the previous command. Yes, /dev/sdb1 is mounted on /cdrom. Now how can we proceed in order to change ownership?

Post the result of command (run as a regular user): id
This is what I get: uid=999(ubuntu) gid=999(ubuntu) groups=999(ubuntu),4(adm),24(cdrom),27(sudo),30(dip),46(plugdev),115(lpadmin),131(sambashare)
