Thanks Micro! Going to set that tomorrow as am anxious to try another experiment of mine! Getting to be a real mad scientist here and there! Am also going to upload a sort of help file for new users and upgrading to newer kernels. Hoping it will help and is things we sometimes take for granted! Have a delay on the old laptop as have to pull the keyboard out and get the CMOS battery out. I'm not going to make a special trip to the store! Will have to wait til more things compile for that trip! Am happy as you know what that 3.5 is now on the flash as last few times tried on the 3.2 kernel would never save any settings even though 3gigs was reserved for it! Now was just as simple as working with 3.4 to just start saving and setting things! To lighten the load I dumped most of the themes as only use the two I brought with me! Am a real sucker for those two themes and one is modified to contain the stoplight type for min, expand and close. Love the looks and has always been easier on the eyes! Learned the coloring deal from a Chinese distribution called YLMF 4. Version of Gnome was very similar to Cinnamon's desktop, but the main thing was color scheme made it easier to spend more time on the computer. Brighter colors just seem to cause me eye strain! Anyway their system was very intriguing in some points and do enjoy messing with it on VBOX. I did run that OS as my first Linux system, but does look quite like an antique when it comes to Ultimate! Still a few ideas are there I want to pursue, so will go at it again and still hoping to bring it back to present day!(Was outdated 6 months after release due to kernel change!). Currently, I was unable to get their new release when they combined with StartOS. I only have beta versions of YLMF 5 which lacks in the looks that YLMF 4 had! Their combine with StartOS has a server that is very slow. Not going to wait all day for download of it! My heart lies with Ultimate, but alas you never forget the first!!!!
