Thanks Nick, Pete and Simon for your replies, offers and suggestions. :)
Much appreciated.

Linux has run  slowly compared to W/s right from the start, but now
there is an "Unable to find swap page sig" message at boot, and also
"Activating remaining swap devices in etc/fstab........Failed" These are
new boot messages, so either the system has done something, (unlikely!)
or I have broken something when I played in Konsole. :( The thing will 
boot, then comes to a grinding stop - not quite a freeze, but almost as 
good as.
