File fun with DyneBolic

That's right, mon! Jah peepl gotta EXPLORE this new Linux, and find out what it can do!


OK, I know: terrible Jamaican accent, and in print at that. Anyway, now that you have "docked" Dynebolic and are running it from your machine (or even if that didn't work, we'll find a way), here are some things you need to do:


A) You've already seen that you can get around inside Dynebolic by using a program called xFE. Not only can you can click on folders with the mouse, you can also type in an address in the address bar. Another way of getting into this program is by right clicking the desktop, going to "Files", then choosing xFE. Using this program, I want you to answer the following:


1) when you run this program, what folder does it start in?
what is that folder's address in the addressbar?

2) do you think there is a button on the desktop that also opens this folder?
Please tell me what you think it is

3) Please give the exact address for each of the following:
your hard drive --------------------------->
your floppy drive (assuming it works) ------> your usb drive (if you have one on you) ----> the folder where you stored the stuff I gave you today------------------->

4) In that last folder, you were given some images. Please double click on each type of image, and tell me what program starts up when you do so:
images ending with "gif" ---->
images ending with "jpg" ---->
images ending with "bmp" ---->

5) What program starts if you right click any of those image types and then click "Edit"?

6) What program starts when you click on a Word document?

7) How about a notepad file ( extension .txt)?

8) What program starts when you click on a wav or mp3 file?

9) How about if you right click on one of those sounds?

10) Please give the exact address of at least one
of the folders where the games are stored ---------->


11) Last but not least, let's try our hand at creating a folder or two. Anywhere inside xFE, please right click on a blank spot, then click "new folder" Name your folder, then get inside it. Please list its address here------>
Cheers, Mr. L
