Ethernet plugs in and the standard instructions at /NextLibrary/Documentation/NextAdmin/03_SetUpNet.rtfd/ for setting up static IP addresses, while somewhat arcane, worked for me. (Sure hope they mean, … ."rich text format document". That would be more polite than what I fear….) I’m running version 2.7 beta 3 according to the splash screen that comes up in response to “info”. > Thanks Mark! My system has 48 MB and around 650 MB left on the 1 GB HDD.

At the moment, I’m running a backup megapixel display on the Cube board and a Sun 15” color monitor on the NextDimension. Windows slide nicely from one to the other, but it does slow things down a little to run that way. However, if speed were the issue, the system would be in trouble; lots of screen real estate is one way it can still compete with my laptop! > On Wed, Nov 11, 2015 at 1:43 PM, Chris Osborn <fozzt...@fozztexx.com> wrote: >> >> If you need a replacement icon for it, I made some a long time ago: >> >> http://i.imgur.com/EKNAukO.png >> Hee hee!
