   Hi Rick!   
   Thank you for the translation in the previous message - perhaps I'll learn a   
   thing or two here

   I take it you are using the default Ubuntu install of 11.04, with Unity window   
   manager?   
      
   If so, you should ask Andy in the Main msg. area if you can just "apt-get   
   xfce4" to change to the XFCE4 window manager.  It's a really nice one. I used   
   xfce4 when I was running Gentoo Linux.   
      
   If not that, then what you want to look for is 'terminal'.  It's in the   
   accessories menu under Gnome and Unity is based on Gnome.. so you may luck out   
   there :)   
      
   Take care,   
   Janis
