Well, I did something and now its working to pick up your name in the 
greeting so thats progress of sorts.  ISTR I removed the locale portion.
As for the "how does this work" pop-ups, the note says there is no help, 
contributions welcome.

Thanks Nils.  I'll keep poking at it with a small stick.  I found a link 
from a SuSe site that doesn't show the leading "O" on them, is there not 
an actual std for this?

Cheers, Gene
