You have it above. However, sending it to me as a PM does the list a severe disservice. Send it to the list so that all can learn, including what you eventually did to fix it. Mutual education for all. Are you new to linux? Its sometimes hard for a Windows user, used to all the secrecy involved, to appreciate the openness of the linux world. Come on in, I think you will find the folks here very helpful. There are on this list, the authors of this software, some of which have their own products to sell and support. Many are also machine shop owner/operators. As for me, the resident old fart, I'll be 83 in October, retired tv chief engineer, C.E.T. & what used to be a 1st Phone. I am not an all encompassing guru, and the only "diploma's" I have are grammer school, G.E.D. and the University of Hard Knocks. But I have accumulated a decent list of BTDT's. So send away, but send it to the list please. > > On Monday 28 August 2017 03:49:17 Marius Liebenberg wrote: > > > Hi Johan > > > > > > You will have to provide a bit more detail in order to get > > > assistance.
