Aha my apologies, keep it in mind for future?

This is the beauty of Ubuntu, my clean install is done in no time, then just add back the files from USB stick, download opera, import Opera, Chromium, add the contacts and book marks and I am done.

Some things I prefer in the previous Ubuntu, one the calc would stay put and open up where you left it, two, open office spreadsheets would send via evolution seamlessly, now you have to open evolution to complete the send.
I run different op/sys. and all have their quirks. Thanks again.

Don't you have a seperate /home partition?

I didn't at first, but it makes things a lot easier in the long haul.

When Benz and Daimler invented the car, were people amazed or did a bike "do the trick"?

This morning I booted up Ubuntu. No panel shown. So I booted up another machine same thing not panel shown, just a full screen. So I followed the advice in this thread and restored the panel. Why is this happening and why
two different machines?????? The different machine was Mint. I can't get to terminal in Ubuntu to fix it.
