Thanks for the suggestion Ralph; in fact there was nothing wrong. It was just that the GUI picked up the out-of-date engine just after a close was forced, so it looked as though it was damaged.

Replied from the netbook, doesn't appear to have got through; anyway, the issue was a combination of llel Unix installations and outdated components producing (apparent) upgrade issues.

When I used to get into Scarborough early in the morning I'd pop into the workman's cafe on top of the fish dock; best cup of tea, and a good egg and chips. Did the Yorkshire Post Friday night run for two years; I could drive to Scarborough in my sleep - and frequently did! Simono On Wed, 2010-09-2

Ah so you need 3d... Ok... I generally assume that people doing 3d don't use Autocad as I know of a lot of people who just don't like the way it works and use more heavyweight stuff like ProE/Catia/Solidworks/Inventor etc etc... It's a damn shame that ProE isn't available on Linux anymore, I belie
