so I've got it all working so far... the only problem is, the .iso I

Thanks for the tips - still need my hand held!
I backed up my home directory a while ago - I think I did it through
Nautilus / Brasero - but wasn't aware that there might be hidden files.
I've not been able to find where GRAMPS saves its data although I have

The emails will be parsed for args to send the scripts, and the scripts will

My 9.04 seems fine sound-wise, as Alan says it was 8.10 that I had the
