Booted into Lubuntu and tried to delete that file.
Same msg !
Code: Select all
vineet@vinpc:/$ rm pupswap.swp
rm: remove write-protected regular file 'pupswap.swp'? y
rm: cannot remove 'pupswap.swp': Permission denied
Also tried to change permissions by rgt-clk the file in PCManFM -- properties -- permissions -- change it to 'Anyone'. But permission denied for that.
EDIT:-
Just occurred to me that I may need to use sudo.
Tried the command with sudo and the file got deleted. So far so good. Let me boot back into puppy.
Another observation.
In Lubuntu, I had 2 GB swap.
Now it is showing 0.
That means the swapfile I had deleted was belonging to Lubuntu.
