Re: Japanese Earthquake

Fortunately the tsunami alert was a non event here (in New Zealand), one disaster at a time is enough, thanks!

Re: LMDE Bug Reports Thread

When I started up today after downloading level 3 updates last night, I have no /HOME. :(

I have no access to Nautilus, or menus or anything. Just a screen with the wallpaper, and a very minimalist task bar.
