Thanks, but it wasnt as bad as it sounds. I have a web/file server (that runs Ubuntu) that I back up most important files to. Plus the Dapper install was quite old, I think from when Dapper was first released. I had learned a lot since then. So I was able to repartition the drive to make it easier to upgrade if I ever wanted to. I replaced the Dapper install, I like Dapper because of its stability, and because I know it so well. But I did install Feisty to try it. Well in any event the problem went away. Its possible I had a package from someplace else that was causing this bug.
