[X4U] Repair Permissions

[Lee Licata]

Paul, and to the list,

I have found that when I do the find command, it appears that the hard 
drive's library (not user's library) is not searched.

For example, I wanted to find where the "built-in" sound files were 
recently so I picked one and searched.

Not found.

Yet, there it was in plain sight in the sound folder in the hard 
drive's library.

Now, maybe I have a fault somewhere (system 10.3.9, powerbook g4, all 
software up-to-date) but that is what I am experiencing...

Maybe someone on the list can give a hint on how to get the find 
command to search the hard drive's library folder...

Hi Brett,

Nothing of that kind can be found.  I already did that.  Even
invisible doesn't show a thing.
