Hi Paul Thanks for the reply.
I have delved into Ubuntu and Linux many times over the past 10 years and each time, got frustrated and dumped it. Linux has come a long way and the Linux Mint looked like a good alternative to Windows. But once again I used the built in Package Manager and installed Lararus and it crashed. I do delve into the command line on occasions but I'm not to clued up on this. The second frustration I have is that in searching for answers to problems, there can be 5 completely different solutions. Depending on which flavour of Linux you have depends on which solution, but that is not spelled out in the solution summary so invariably they do not work. My thought was that with the Linux Mints GUI, all these bits would have been integrated into one version control and it would be relatively problem free. No terminal involved. Lets hope we get there. I'm really looking for MS alternative as Win 8 and 10 are just way over the top. Anyway I can help in fixing this problem?
