Replying to my own post to cap the thread: thanks everyone. Did anyone notice anything historical in the subject I picked for this thread: I'm old enough to remember the tv show "The 64,000 dollar question" and also the radio show, "The 64 dollar question". So I thought that "64bit question" was the right way to ask <smile>. Now there's a "should I use latest Ubuntu at all question. I'll re-open the old thread to ask it to try to keep the subjects and thread contents rationally connected for search engines. Jeff -- Jeff Lasman, Nobaloney Internet Services P.O.
