Hi Jack,
I emailed you the my suggestions below
"I tried running LabVIEW 6.1 on a Linux machine here running red hat 7.2 and I couldnt reproduce you issue. I got the full pathname '/home/login_name/untitled1.vi. I even tried LabVIEW 7 and that worked fine too. This maybe a silly question but I just want to make sure we have
everything covered. Did you stretch the path indicator so that you are seeing the complete path?
If you are just concerned about the '/', then what you can do is convert the path to string, remove the '/' from the string and finally convert the string back to path.
These VIs are located at Functions >> Strings >> String/Array/Path
Conversion.
Good luck
