Thanks Scott.
Tried your suggestion to "find" downloaded get I player in LL menu without success.
Removed all of get player + dependencies using Synaptic.
Followed terminal instruction from the get_iplayer forum download section for Linux Ubuntu
All ran smoothly and to check was found green boxed in Synaptic.
HOWEVER still not found how to activate in LL menu
FYI used previously get_iplayer successfully on this Tosh A10laptop using full install of Puppy Linux precise 5.7.1.
Any other ideas welcomed.
