I'm sorry if this is a simple question that has been ansewered recently
or one that can be found easily, but i'm new to linux and if that is the
case if someone could kindly direct me to where i could find ansewers,
seeing as how i got no replys, that would be great.

p.s. The section about the mouse below has a typo, it should have been,
i can't use the mouse to click the dialog box, not that i can.

thanks,
john
