Thanks for your reply David. I apologize for it actually, I was just more than a bit pissed with the Ubuntu upgrade and had spent too long futzing with it. After I wrote, I calmed down a bit and have it semi-working now but I am getting kernel panics too frequently and haven't spent too much time figuring that one out yet. Actually, I'm not even sure where to start but as I said, after the frustrations, I am going to live with a little inconvenience and the Magic Keys use once in awhile ;)
Thanks again for responding ...
