I am replying from the Ubuntu 14.04 installation on the particular
computer; i have found Ubuntu 14.04 to be not user-friendly, and to
have considerably reduced functionality (compared to Debian 6 and
Ubuntu 12.04). And, Ubuntu 14.04 is difficult to use, but, it allows
me to use an external monitor, wheras Debian 7 does not.

On this platform, both commands return "No such file or directory", using
sudo ls <path>
.
