	You're using Xubuntu, right?  They are the ones who should be
supporting you in this.  It's their patches and hacks, after all.

	Unfortunately it's not that simple.  Code is called code for a reason. 
  It's like Chinese, even if you are an experienced programmer.  It's 
not easy at all to spot that misplaced semicolon in 200 lines of source.

	Ok, before this gets out of hand, you guys aren't reading emails 
correctly again.  Remember, your dear old mother would never insinuate 
anything bad about you.  As for not being a programmer or Linux expert, 
that's not a problem.  We all were at some point or other.
