Interface?  I just hooked it up, booted the computer, XP found the new hardware and installed the 
drivers....   then it was recognized and usable.  That's the only thing I have with Ubuntu....   all 
the codes...   After about 15 years of being online, I'm still trying to get used to HTML....   <grin>
