    It's at the bottom normally. If it's not there right click on the desktop and you can get at the menu that way. Go to Applications -> Settings -> Settings Manager and then click on Panel. Click on the + sign to add a panel and set it where you want. We can then add the items you want / need to it.

    I un-installed XFCE, I installed Mint 11 in its place, as XFCE could not find one of my network printers and mint 11 could. I now have a quadruple boot machine w7 64 bit, vista 32 bit, Ubuntu using wubi installer to run along side w7, and Linux mint 11 on a separate internal hard drive.

    Now if I could figure out how to stop removable drives appearing as windows pop-ups at start-up. There is no re-movable drive item as far as I can find in control centre unless it goes by another name. I clicked on everything looking for it can not find it.

    Standard edition is probably in Nautilus (File Manager) -> Edit -> Preferences -> Media
