tag 15858 notabug
close 15858
stop

That probably implies there are no files in your home directory.
You could confirm by listing another directory like:

ls /etc

thanks,
Pádraig.

Sending screenshots and using only the subject line of your message to
convey contents is a poor way to express yourself.  It wastes a lot of
bandwidth (your message occupied 140 kb, even though pasting the
contents of your terminal session as text would be less than 1kb), and
not everyone is able to view images inline.

Have you checked whether you have any shell functions or aliases
interfering with normal operation?  Running 'type ls' will help you
determine if that may be the case.

Hi
I have over written "ls"command via "sudo cat > ls".That's why no
executable file for "ls" was present.Finally I copied "ls" file from other
computer and paste it in /bin and changed its mode to 755.
Its working now.
