Thanks Mick, Phillip,
I am running mint off a USB key, tonight I add Phillip's PPA and
install! Thanks a lot .... unfortunatey after more than 10y using
linux both at work and at home, I am having to use Windows 7
Enterprise for a while at work to run some windows only software. What
a pile of .... :) .... you can do half of the things you can do with
any linux distribution or even Mac, and it takes twice as much time
digikam is extremely painful to use and goes into "not respnding"
after a couple of minutes, whilst when I run it from the USB key on
the same computer it works fine.
Best,
