In fact I tend to search for packages with the synaptic 'Search' feature, and then install from a terminal with aptitude. Does anyone use the aptitude GUI? (Perhaps I should say GUI, as it's more a 'sort-of' GUI - the one that starts when you just do 'aptitude' in a terminal. Quite powerful, but old-fashioned and clunky.)

I always come back to it. Some times its not the logical. Example, last year I had a graphics card that went pop,it was dead as in totally dead. Well I am the sort that keeps things, so a few months ago I upgraded my daughters PC, she had a graphics card built on to the motherboard. So I decided to put in this dead card forgetting it was dead, giving her more memory back to the system. suddenly remembering it was no good. Blimey it worked, to this day I can not find any logical reason why it should. It still works to this day. I tried it on 3 other PC`s but dead it was dead it stayed. Its one of those wierd things that PC`s throw up now and then. Mike. -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/

It was tedious for me because I am inexperienced and not confident with deleting using sudo and wildcards! So I did it a few files at a time. I even deleted any graphic which had been introduced (real logo etc etc) Anyway it did work ok! :-) If you do an initial 'Find files' looking for say. 'real' then decide what to then search for - iirc it was realplayer, not at all sure.
