Derek, I will keep you (and the list) informed. I have found some 
instructions to do it but it needs my system to be restarted and I 
haven't had the tine to do so.
Network and even sound works- although it is too low in volume - but if 
USB will work I like it better than VMware and I unstalled it using 
synaptic.
