Thanks for the tip, I shall look into it. I don't recall how I installed LO on my desktop, but I don't see any repos for LO in my sources.list so I guess I must have just downloaded it. The following, although it may seem petter, isn't. It's important. I don't want to seem ungrateful but it's kind of a big deal. *Please*, do not use that bulletin-board style "@Liam" thing again, to anyone on any mailing list. I missed your message because it wasn't threaded as a response to me. The *only* reason for "@username" is on crappy flat fora with no threading - it enables you to direct responses when the software is too crap, broken and pathetic to support threading, which has been a standard feature of email and newsgroups for about 35 years now. Or, of course, that the authors are too damned stupid to have implemented it. This is the reason I don't use the Ubuntu fora and won't use web fora in general unless there is no alternative. No threading means a useless, chaotic mess. If you'd replied to me, my email client would have told me about it. As it was, you didn't, you only replied to Mac and I happened to stumble across the message revisiting the thread. -- Liam Proven • Info & profile: http://www.google.com/profiles/lproven Email: lpro...@cix.co.uk • GMail/GoogleTalk/Orkut: lpro...@gmail.com Tel: +44 20-8685-0498 • Cell: +44 7939-087884 • Fax: + 44 870-9151419 AIM/Yahoo/Skype: liamproven • MSN: lpro...@hotmail.com • ICQ: 73187508 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
