I posted over a week ago on Ubuntu forums. No responses. > The package at the link Rod posted does work (64bit) ...sort of.

But if I go deeper I find some that might be what you are referring to. I also tried adding that line to Synaptic repositories, but it didn't work. Synaptic is very strange about that. If the location doesn't exist or there is some other error (e.g., no packages at that site), you'd think it would say so. But all that happens is a great deal of nothing. It reloads the packages and you think it has found the new packages, but when you go into Settings you discover that the source you just typed into the Add > Custom box a few minutes earlier is not listed. Evidently it just decides to ignore it without so much as a whisper. Maybe I should just download it and do it manually. Exactly which file is it? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
