(I'd downloaded the 2 xorg packages on 5 April & as far as I can remember I hadn't rebooted since then....) I'd been trying to get "enough stuff" to be able to play Windoze compatible CDs & DVDs so maybe something in there bit me! Anyway, thanks for your input, I'm back to a working system again & with a number of tricks to keep me going for a while!
