Hi Chuck,

I hate to sound like a complete knucklehead but I never really quite knew
what the problem was to begin with other than something didn't
install/update quite right.  I'm pretty knew to ubuntu and any sort of
sysAdmin activities.  I was simply performing an update on the system and
during all the automagical installs that are a part of that action this
popped up.  I really just followed the directions in a pretty blind
fashion.  So...I guess I have no idea on this one.

One problem I am having that I haven't reported yet as I was trying to
figure it out on my own is that the wireless connection is toggling on/off
at the slightest sign of inactivity.  As there's no LAN connection and I'm
trying to share the printer attached to this system it's causing a lot of
headache!

Thanks,
Fran
