Hi, mad... thanks for the email. Unfortunately I don't really understand what xorg etc are, or what is responsible for the fault. I just reported a problem using a function installed in the OS. If it happens again I'll look out for the appropriate 'report a bug' tool. The report definitely states "probably a fresh install", which it's not, hence the clarification. I'm running 12.04 now, and it mostly works. Regards
