Thank you very much.  I've been on the Ardour list but haven't taken this 
question there as I figured there weren't any Gentooers there - glad to hear 
I'm wrong.  

I'll try copying creating the ~.ardourrc file although I thought it would 
default to using the /etc/ardour one if mine didn't exist.

I'll definitely visit Jan's site.  Cableone was my old provider till I moved!
