Those photos do not load for me. The pages stay running for minutes, 
then nothing. Possibly something going on today.

It solves for me how to restart a failed 8 disk raid 6 assembly. Asks 
for the output of commands and interprets them. It instructed me on how 
to start creating a family tree using gramps, from zero. Instead of 
reading the manual, I started typing, then asked questions. It has a lot 
of patience.

But the text I personally write is just a paragraph, 4..8 lines top.


Ah, finally, the photos loaded. Oh, I see what you call the bars. Yes, I 
see them sometimes. I've never used them, I'll try next time.
