So much to learn and so little time to do it in .....

Thanks for that tip - I had no idea that when I SU'd I did not become a 
real root user. There has to be basic tutorial that will give neophytes 
like me a few clues to get started in Linux

In any case here is what lspci gives me

I just spent 1 hour trying to figure out how to make my w98 partitions 
visible to FC2.  Once I sorted out the syntax in the fstab they now show up 
in /mnt - now if there was a way to make them visble on the desktop I would 
be happy

thanks again

Preston
