Hi Pixel!

Sorry it took so long but they made me go to work.

Here's the interesting stuff (lol)

Alt-F1:  GLib warning **: getpwuid_r(): failed due to no such user 0.
         Use of uninitialized value at /usr/bin/perl-install/my_gtk.pm line 65
             (W) an undefined value was used as if it were already defined. It
             was interpreted as a "" or 0, but may be a mistake. To suppress
             this warning assign an intial value to your variables.

That's what we have. Would a wacked partition table cause all the hubbub?

Thanks for your help,
