I think I can answer that Lonnie. Yeah had done a number of updates &
added programs. Still pretty much a Vanilla Ubuntu with the exception of
adding the KDE desktop. But no major changes immediatly around the time
I resized the desk top and lost my screen savers. And with the new user
its back to a gnome desktop.
Though I'm looking forward to the release of the new version of Ubuntu.
Going to try that and see how badly I can bugger my system :{<
