Hi Simon and Smoot
Thanks for your feedbacks !
I just got it solved before receiving your answers. ;-)

I overlooked a little dot at the begin !!!
So, my typing found no match and couldn't proceed. ;-(

BTW one more question:
MythTV is a directory !
The last file was .qt ... and something !!

All your hints tell me do remove a folder with "rm" !?
I always assumed "rm" is used to remove files !?
Isn't "rmdir" the command to remove a directory ???

Cheers, svobi
