I am using Ubuntu 10.04.1 in a terminal window. When I am in my home user directory like /home/jeg#
, I cannot cd
into any directories below this. For example, if I enter cd downloads
, or cd /home/jeg/downloads
, I get the message No such file or directory
. But when I do a ls
command it shows me all the directories and files below /home/jeg
. I can go into any other directory, so why is this a special case?
Ubuntu – Why can’t I cd into any subdirectories of the home folder?
command linehome-directory

Ubuntu is case sensitive (files and directories named with capital letters are different from those named in lowercase)
try
cd Downloads
