If you want to do data analysis and plotting then your best bet would
probably be GNU R: www.r-project.org.
It has a steeper learning curve than Python, but it's really dedicated to
doing stats.

Ubuntu mostly works great on this laptop, except that wireless access
required writing a script and by default the tap-to-click misfeature is

In the terminal programs I use, alt-backspace erases the word to the
left of the cursor. This is very handy, but when my thumb slips
just a small amount it also presses the ctrl key, thereby ending my X
window session. It would be nice to know if there's a way to turn
this feature off. Anyone?

Your config file did the trick. Thank you!

Part of the problem now seems to be resolved. I used GRUB this time,
which made the boot loading part much easier. All the needed info was

At one point I wanted an unstable package and so
apt-get brought a lot of other things with it.
Being new to all this, I haven't been sure how
to go back. I'd be interested in knowing if there's
a clean way to do it, since it doesn't seem to work
to just change the sources back to stable.
