   The program tries to save the files into the same folder that it was    
   installed into. If it could be installed without permissions, why can't    
   it save to the same folder without permission?   
      
   I wish there is, or maybe there is, an Ubuntu newsgroup where one can    
   post screenshots. Trying to "explain" something I saw on the screen is    
   difficult.   
      
   BTW, FWIW, I programed my first computer in 1963, it was an analog    
   computer that solved differential equations. I even do firmware for    
   PICs. I can understand the small micros, but the big boxes are now    
   beyond me. All I want is a tool. Why do I have to be a guru on a big box    
   to be able to use it?
