Ok, I have another problem related to Open shot and outputting of video. 
The computer runs cool and great.   Openshot crashes. Again I only have 
one gig of ram I will fix that tomorrow by installing four gigs, if my 
computer can use IT??  I also found I only have 885 mgs of swap space on 
my drive and I would like to increase that to maybe 2gigs. Open Shot is 
now using 100% of the swap file.   Gparted seems to be able to add more 
space.  I can't  unmount the drive with ubuntu running in it.  I am 
working on my second drive in 11.04  Can I run Gparted in 10.04 on first 
drive and change the swap file size on the second drive.  Also, will I 
loose Files or will it just use free space.
