Not by a long shot, but I can install and do all my basic set-up/network/network printer/shares in about 30mins.

I just downloaded the .deb package from his website:  http://www.giuspen.com/cherrytree/
At the top of the page is a link to download the user manual in CherryTree .ctb format, the guide itself shows it's capabilities.

Thanks... David

Valtam would know better than I on that.  Remember when last poster had problem I looked for files to backup for menu.  Seem to vaguely remember thinking that it looked as though multiple files were involved and linked to each other and a few other things.  (Could be wrong about that, though.  Didn't have time to test anything -- just took quick look at some of the configs.)

Lucky guess on my part.  The screenshot program defaults to that naming convention and I've noticed that the special characters cause problems when trying to upload a pic to another forum I post on.  That's what made me guess that.

I re-did them for consistency to /mnt/ all is fine,
No disk icons, but per your comment, I dragged them to the file manager panel for ease of access.

There was another user on here who experienced strange problems when changing to UK English from US English, so that is probably the culprit for you too.  (No idea why or how to fix it.)

As for the Samba problem, I don't use that so don't know; but it may be possible that it's having problems with that screenshot, timestamped filename.  Noticed it has a couple of colons (":") in the name.  Maybe those are causing the problem.  Try re-naming the screenshot file(s) and see if problem goes away.

Hello Valtam,

I did a re-install to see if I could re-create the issue...
trying to note each change/step, and checking the menu.
It appears that either changing the:
> Time indicator in the task bar from Time am/pm to Time(24hr mode) and Date mode
or
> Changing Language to UK English in Language settings

causes my issue.



But I now have a bigger issue, Did not occur on previous installs, an error when trying to copy files to network locations NAS or PC.
I have setup exactly like my previous 20+ installs and never had an issue, googling this seem to indicate this "was" a bug some time ago.



So I will do another install.
Next time I will live with menu change,
they actually work, it's only the name that changes.

Thanks... David
