OT, Linux: bash can't see a file that's there, really!

Sorry for the OT post, but I figure I'll get a quicker, more useful response here. Brand new computer, Xubuntu 14.04 instead of Lubuntu 12.04 I just copied over my Codesourcery directory to /usr/share/arm-none-eabi (where it was on the old machine, and where everything worked fine). Bash insists it's not there, even though I can see it in a directory: Here's ls: $ ls -l /usr/share/arm-none-eabi/bin/*gcc -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 270608 Aug 6 2014 /usr/share/arm-none-eabi/bin/ arm-none-eabi-gcc Here's when I try to run it: $ /usr/share/arm-none-eabi/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc bash: /usr/share/arm-none-eabi/bin/arm-none-eabi-gcc: No such file or directory Clues for the clueless? Thanks. -- Tim Wescott Wescott Design Services

That worked. Thank you very much -- you've saved me from upgrade hell, I suspect.

I'm in agreement with you, which is why I want to carry on with what I have for as long as possible. Upgrading your tools and inadvertently breaking things is a bitch. Fortunately your suggestion above worked.
