Apologies for not writing sooner, trouble at mill.

I'm getting by without it. When the weather here allows one to spent the 
Sunday afternoon at the PC (it was 37°C here on Sunday) I'm going to 
backup everything and do a re-install. And then I'm going to go for good 
ole Debian stable and be done with it.
