Hi Norman. I have just listened to Radio 2 successfully online with FireFox 3 on Ubuntu 8.10. (It also worked on 8.04). I enjoy listening to Malcolm Laycocks show on a Sunday night. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/b00f941q I like the old time music, but I guess to you and your brother it's just 'music' :-) hehehehe All I can think of that you need to listen to it is Flash, which you can get here http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ Hope that helps. Colin
