Thanks, It's been 3 years since I have done anything much with Linux. Installed Fedora on my deve server and added phpMyAdmin and left everything they way it installed. Things have changed for the better. I am especially impressed that xubuntu found my WIFI and installed the proper drivers .... This was an exercise and a good one. I'll be exercising more this weekend.... Thanks for your help!

No problem. You can install the desktop first then add the server packages with apt/synaptic/adept. Or install the server and add the desktop apps. apt-get install kde or apt-get install gnome-desktop-environment There will be alot more downloading going on if you start with the server. Most downloading will be done as part of the ISO if you start with the desktop. - -- JT Morée PC Xperience, Inc. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFF098p1JwGi/ukQqERAjnnAKCpEK4VHRN9DVkmKLBXEoJgbrnn/wCfTL1o OiFVrN4HhDX/1op89Q1z1Ww= =SsOR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
