I assume you're talking about Ubuntu? You can change the color scheme, you know. My old 512MB laptop really didn't like the change from Ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10; I haven't decided yet whether I want to go back to 8.04 or forward to the latest Xbuntu -- I should just install it and play, I suppose. -- Tim Wescott Control systems and communications consulting http://www.wescottdesign.com Land line: 503.631.7815 Cell: 503.349.8432 _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
