Hi Barry, great you are doing some more stuff on the Raspberry Pi, Quirky / puppy is so much better for it for my needs than any other distro.

Will try other sizes tomorrow.

Just a typo.

Thanks woodenshoe-wi that's a good thought I will check.
"The fault could be with the program veronicathecow used to un-compress the zip file. Everything worked fine for me without any changes. "
