Hi Bert and Subbu,
When I drill down into what looks like the Linux executable and double click on it, nothing happens.
Which distribution of Linux? Linux is a multi-user system and some distros disable permission to run programs off a memory stick for security reasons. Etoys can still run on those systems if you create a custom launcher button for it.
The Linux is a not too old Ubuntu.
Try creating a "Application Launcher" iconic button (right click and choose from "Create New") and give the complete path to the etoys.sh file. E.g.
sh "/media/disk/Etoys-To-Go 4.1app/etoys.sh"
I think the problem was that I wasn't double-clicking on the correct file (etoys.sh). I will give that a try on my sons laptop this weekend. If that fails I will try Subbu's suggestion above.
I now have another question buy I will ask it in another post as I don't want to change the subject of this thread yet again.
Thanks for all the help, Lou ----------------------------------------------------------- Louis LaBrunda SkypeMe callto://PhotonDemon mailto:Lou@LaBrunda.Info http://www.LaBrunda.Info
