Thank you for the detailed explanation of restart.

As far as my installation DVD is concerned I downloaded the ISO image from Ubuntu's web site and burned it myself.

The only complication I had was that I already had a 12.04 installation on my 2nd hard drive (hdb or sdb) and the Ubuntu installation detected it and wanted me to upgrade, etc. I was not happy with the choices, so I disconnected the power supply to my 2nd hard drive and did the installation as a virgin installation. Previously, of course, I wiped out partitions on the main hard drive so the installation found nothing but an unpartitioned hard drive. Btw, this main hard drive is brand new, 250 Gig, because the original hard drive started to fail. I had a hard time finding an IDE ATA drive, because now everything is SATA and my motherboard is a few years old. Anyway, when I first installed 13.04 on the factory new hard drive it formatted and occupied the entire 250 Gig. So I wiped it out, created a smaller partition and this is how this 13.04 is installed. Probably this all is irrelevant.

I can start all over again: download the ISO, burn the DVD, reinstall 13.04 and try again.

My 12.04 installation is on the 2nd hard drive, and so is my old FC3 where the Lexmark printer does not segfault.

Scanner works on 12.04, and I can try deactivating apparmor on 12.04 and see if I can print with Lexmark.
