Hi Duncan... Thinking about what you mentioned, I checked, and I don't seem to have a11y anywhere on the system. I do not like KDE, just do not like the interface. But, I did run a torrent and got Mint 13 xfce to try it. Will probably install that sometime today, as soon as I figure which HDD to receive it. ;-p will post the results after this is accomplished, bob _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
