Thanks Matthew. Such pre-packaged software is indeed of interest, as I am unlikely to get deeply into programming. The module's reference manual says "AVR Freaks is an essential site to visit". I haven't reached the stage of investigating this material. I have, in the last couple of days, acquainted myself with bash scripts through an introduction obtained from the Internet. That has been useful. I now know how bash scripts are composed and run. I am presently using the Live CD to communicate with the module. However I have yet to do so using Ubuntu 10.04LTS; something appears to be blocking USB access. Geoff
