To recap: When I installed FGFS from synaptic it installed itself in /usr/share/games/flightgear, when I installed Atlas from software centre it created a folder Atlas in that directory but also created /usr/share/games/FlightGear which only contains AtlasPalette. Permissions for /usr/share/games/flightgear/Atlas are Owner:Root/Folder access:Create and delete files/File access:-.
For Group & Others it's just Access files, so as I understand it Root (me) can write to /usr/share/games/Atlas, unless I'm missing something?
When I point Map at /usr/share/games/flightgear/Atlas it says it Failed to open '/usr/share/games/FlightGear/Fonts/helvetica_medium.txf' for reading. That's because it isn't there!
