Kurt,
Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately I can't now supply the package number because I have wiped the hard drive and reinstalled a new copy of ubuntu. I thought that was the easiest way forward for me. Although a newbie I find Ubuntu far superior than Microsoft but I need to find my way around the system yet, but it will take time. Once again thanks for your time, much appreciated and nice to be part of the Linux family. Take care.
Regards
Craig
