Tried the KDE version. Looks good. Uninstalled for what may be a silly reason but, before downloading did a packages check and was assured that Pysolfc was availaible in their repositories. Not so. As far as I am concerned all linux distributions should have Pysolfc in their repositories.

There, call me silly.
