Hi John, Are you a British ex-pat? My missus's dad lives in Nantes, he sells property out there - it seems like a nice enviable pace of life, I wouldn't mind it to be honest but its a long time till I retire and I don't speak French so the job opportunities would be a little thin on the ground! ;-) Welcome to the group. It's usually pretty busy in here, and there are always people willing to answer any questions that you might have. If you haven't seen it already, you can find the ubuntu uk website at www.ubuntu-uk.org -> that has info on how to get onto the wiki and the IRC system etc. Cheers Chris -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
