hi again i have installed linuxcnc debian wheezy 2,7,0 (live cd).
sins there is no folder for 5125card under "lib/firmware/hm2/ i have downloaded 5125.zip from mesa homepage and unzipped it.
i am atempting to copy it to hm2 folder but unable to ,problems with permission i suspect.
owner: root(Root) unable change it .
how do i change it (i did not get sudo nautilus to work,does not accept my password and the only one i know about is the one i use when i start my computer and log in.
any ideas??.

I would just unzip the 5i25.zip file in your home directory
there is no point in installing it anywhere permanent

????why not installing it where all the other firmwares are,is not that that the proper way?.
