Thanks Pybe,

I found an article at 
http://www.bytebot.net/geekdocs/spatial-nautilus.html that explained the 
nautilus bit and (more importantly to me :-) gives the tweak to put it back.

With the sound I only had a chance to do the lspci thing on the one 
machine. I'll try and do the other one next week when I am back in the 
office.

For the PC300PL lspci reports:
[hockings omxnnu hockings]$ /sbin/lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corp. 440BX/ZX/DX - 82443BX/ZX/DX Host bridge 
(rev 03)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corp. 440BX/ZX/DX - 82443BX/ZX/DX AGP bridge 
(rev 03)

01:01.0 VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. Trio 64 3D (rev 01)

The sound is built into the motherboard but I don't know what it is on 
this one, on the other machine, an Aptiva, it is Crystal Audio sound.

In any case it's not a big deal but just disapointing that the sound 
doesn't work.
