Hi Tycho, Thanks your information; I didn't know that the 12.10 is already EOL'd. Since I had write some code that is been tested on 12.04, I prefer to not moving my desktop to newer version until my current project is finished. BTW, i am not native English, what's your meaning of "if that's not a typo"? Thanks, Houcheng Lin
