Which version of Debian does Ubuntu use? PgS didn't work for me with the Debian "Potato" release, but fine with Sarge (current stable version) and Etch (testing version) with KDE.

You may have to fiddle with the script to get the directories correct.

Sorry; I dunno.

Not so much that, as fiddle with the script's *filename* to get rid of a
space in it. Tim Doty made that suggestion, and minus the space the
script runs just fine from my Gnome menu. Shame on Deron for pulling
such an elementary no-no. 8-(

Well, don't be too hard on him -- I might be the responsible party for that
one. Early on I wrote a script for launching PgS and it started making the
rounds. Overlooking something like that is easy to do (I'm pretty sure I
did).

Oh, yeah -- just after hitting 'send' I remembered to add: and even more
shame on *me* for looking right at it and failing to notice.
