Hello again, I brainstormed a bit and traced the root of the problem - what is keeping Canola from opening? I found out it has nothing to do with Canola! While Canola2 beta7 is istalled, I opened the Terminal and: # apt-get remove python2.5 Ansswered 'yes' to the question asking if I want to remove all 32 python2.5*packages. Closed the Terminal. Ran the Application Installer. Disabled all the repos except the default and memo extras (as suggested by MoRpHeUz)/ Refreshed the package list. Installed ONLY the 'python2.5-runtime' package. Ran Canola2 (without rebooting, even!) And ---- It worked !! A special thanks to MoRpHeUz for pointing me in the right direction! One last thing: Is there a MAiling List specific to Canola? Thanks!
