I can't try that now.  I tried to install another audio mixer to solve another 
newly created problem.  When attempting to install it, the computer said 
should first remove "libsdl1.2debian-alsa".  When I did that and booted, the 
system would no longer boot up.  I am currently with a command prompt in the 
boot stage of open.  Twice I have downloaded Karmic kde live CD's; neither 
will stop the boot process to allow installation, nonetheless, when I 
downloaded them and attempted installation and was unsuccessful, I then tried 
to view the contents.  I was able to do that, so I believe the cd is being 
recognized; I just can't understand that at the same time it is unrecognized 
when I boot.  I will try your F11 with Firefox opened if I can get a desktop 
again.  Thanks.  Since I am at a command prompt, is there anything I can do?
