CP: Thanks for the reply . . . I can get you a camera shot, I'll have to get back to that computer later today to do that . . . one display shared by the PPC and a newer machine, and I'll post that photo.
The testing of the current image as a fresh download . . . a little time consuming on my slow DSL line . . . that may or may not happen. I just ran an update via apt-get a few days ago, and while running U-MATE this am the desktop image is the same blotchy deal that it has been since I posted this bug report. It's easier to run an update/upgrade than it is to even zsync and make a usb flash drive of the daily . . . . I ***could*** do that, but, it will take some time, and, then, question is, has anything "changed" such that it won't be a time flush? : - 0 On Mon, Jul 4, 2016 at 9:04 AM, Christopher M.
