Do any of you guys know how to make the windows key on the keyboard bring up the menu in PP, I have one drive that does and one that doesnt on the same computer??

I realize that it is a trivial thing but I just would like to know why it works on some updates and not on others??

thanks for any input......

My Ubuntu skills are nonexistent!! I did the upgrade and waited several minutes for it to complete, still doesnt work......... not a big deal as its my spare computer for the machine, maybe some way to clone the drive that it works on??
the update was a lengthy process but my internet speed is almost nonexistent here in the basement.

Its really not that important, just irritating that it doesnt work ha!!

Hi Mike
I don't think this is standard behaviour (I'm sure someone will race to correct me if this statement is incorrect ). I would expect this menu to belong to the mate-panel which is not running in the default installation. Are you sure you don't have both mate-panel AND pathpilot selected in StartupApplications on the machines where the menu appears?

Thanks Step, I will check it out.

Thanks Step!!

the missing link was the mate-panel in startup, once it was checked in startup files and rebooted the windows key works!!

Thanks!

Mike, glad to hear you got it sorted. I booted to a fresh installation this morning to check it out while my wife was waiting for me so it's your fault I was late
Take care,
