Follow up--tapping F8, just like Windows (I know you said it could be
any key, but I saw no key on my keyboard marked "any") :), worked

Follow up to the other issue--although, on the forums, someone said
doing yum remove cups would have taken over 200 packages, trying it on
my workstation only showed it making reasonable removals, various
printing packages.
