Thanks! But not on the F17 LXDE spin. In fact, if we just try the spin
(without even installing), we get the above error. (On the original F16
spin, the prompt just comes back which makes sense.) Since this is
caused in this example even before I install, there is some problem
somewhere. Perhaps in the LXDE spin.
