Jim, I haven't tried it yet, but by the looks of it, that is *exactly* what I am looking for. Many thanks.

Thanks for the prompt reply. Two issues:

1) I'm going to need some hand-holding as my foray into the world of linux has just begun recently (in earnest).

2) One of the machines on the network...

Hello community

After days of effort, and with a lot of help from these forums, I've managed to get my little touchscreen to co-operate...somewhat. Here's a picture of the touch screen in...
