Thank you for your help and willingness to work with me, but I have spent enough time on this, and I have other, more pressing things to take care of. But I will continue to lurk in this group, and if anybody finds that a breakthrough has been made in Linux and Dazzle compatibility, I would be happy to try again at some future date. Thanks again, all of you. -- Davey. |
