cd to the directory where those files are located, then copy / delete them.
cd ~
cd .bitcoin/
cp wallet.dat /home/USER_NAME/Desktop/
cd ~
rm -r .bitcoin/
Where USER_NAME is the name of your home directory. Be careful with that code I gave you, it will copy
only your wallet.dat to your Desktop, then proceed to recursively remove .bitcoin and all of its contents.
EDIT: Additionally, you can use the GUI method for this. Click: Places > Home, then press ctrl + h to view hidden files and directories. Find your way to .bitcoin, then delete / copy the desired files as you normally would.
