Hello Joe. You have had better luck than me. I often spend ages without being able to get a round tuit. Must be in short supply over here! No, Joe, I couldn't find that elusive file to edit, so that came to nothing. However, I have installed the 4CD download version of 2007 on my spare hard drive, using the KDE desktop. This afternoon, I got a round tuit and installed XFCE from the repositories. I don't know what version it is, as I have got confused with the numbers. This XFCE installation has no icons on the desktop, but I haven't had time to experiment as to what the situation is concerning the DVD/CD and Floppy drives, the waste bin, etc. A job for tomorrow, if it's raining, as forecast. Sorry I can't be of more help. Cheers Keith ____________________________________________________ Want to buy your Pack or Services from Mandriva?
