   Thanks, I like the fact that with *most* linux distros today they are pretty   
   easy to use but still give me the terminal where I can create a .sh file to do   
   things from the command line, like I used to do in Dos many many, many moons   
   ago.  If it wasn't for the fact that the "support" for it runs out I'd not   
   bother with the idea of upgrading.. I like the way my Mint works.   
      
   I'll have to look at MX or bite the bullet and go Ubunu, but will keep an eye   
   on LM just incase they fix this issue.   
      
   ... OK, I'm weird! But I'm saving up to become eccentric.
