Drag & Drop problems.


Fedora 6, I drag & drop a 20 gig folder to hdb1(backup drive) and I lost a lot of pictures, what did I or Fedora do wrong?

Did it stop in the middle or error. I myself have run into long ago but since then I always copy first. Verify the contents match and then delete the orginal files. I also do many major copies from the command line. Less cpu intense for the gui. Also did you get the Blue tootth printer resolved.

No moving the(the /home/user as a folder) files(to hdb1) continues until the end, but later discovered it didn't copy some hidden-files and pictures, after I installed Fedora 8 and I went to move files back into Fedora 8.
This box is my brother's and he not very savy to the command line

No I haven't had any success it getting the bluetooth to work with a Epson925 usb printer.
In fact the blutooth adapter doesn't appear to have any power going to it from printer. I,m beginning to believe that the computer supplies the + - voltage to printer in usb plug.
I can detect the bluetooth adapters plugged into
two different boxes, a laptop and PC-x86_64,
both boxes are using Fedora 8 . Have not transfered any files by bluetooth yet.

Did some googling and seems there is a bluetooth adapter made for your model. I can not find a picture of it but it is not cheap either. Ranging from $160 to $200 bucks. http://www.mytoys.co.nz/Detail.aspx?ID=10630 the model number is C12C824002. I have search it but come up with a few different items but I don't think they are right.

Now the 935 model had bluetooth with it. To me if wanting bluetooth printing then you might look for the 935 model which looks just like your 925 model. I would think it would be cheaper than the adapter and get new ink cartiages with it.

Now the first parts connect to a parallel printer. Yours is only USB. Now the adapter is sending power if no external power wall wart plug is present to power the USB bluetooth adapter. Just my guess from what I see.
