Thank you for asking. No I never found a solution. Yes, there was no activity here, which was frustrating.
Thank you for suggesting Jaunty, but our hardware has since been left behind by Ubuntu, and purchasing new equipment is not in the budget of my family. Upgrading to the last few versions was also too risky considering the number of complaints registered on the forum about the upgrade process, after Gusty. Apparently a reinstall was the only way to go, and we need to work, not fiddle with constantly changing Ubuntu OS versions. The decision was finally made when Gutsy version support dropped totally. We've switched to Puppy Linux. I've even put together a version called MediaPup for video editing. Support for older versions and older hardware is ongoing in that community. Good Luck with Ubuntu. You might consider testing the steps I outlined above, if you're still curious.
