I've never been part of a Forum and looking forward to being of assistance. I do have two problem's I posted about.. so when someone has a answer I'll get a message right? Just wondering.. BTW I'm available to help say if you have some data entry or something tedious and safe.
My trouble is with my bluetooth and the screen size.
Otherwise I'm doing great and appreciate the warm welcome.
Let this be Your year.

I think your threads about screen size or bluetooth got lost....
For bluetooth `sudo apt install blueman` For screen resolution Settings Panel --> Preferences --> Arandr; once set, "Save to Moksha".
If this doesnt make sense or isnt helpful to your problem perhaps elaborate or point me in the direction of your previous problem description...

First I appreciate all help. I keep running into issue's With my Bluetooth Device. It turn's on but has no adapters and it can't see the device. I was able to hook up my phone as a Teather and wrote down some numbers that might be the mac address for the device. I've Loaded many programs which are to help me connect but, they don't work and I've gone a full percent up in data on my drive which I didn't want. I want plain and simple. And I think I screwed up the screen resolution as I didn't see the path specified and clicked around and hit apply to see and I don't know how to undo it
Okay. I have a Dell Inspiron 1011. I was running Ubuntu on it and everything worked. I tried to download Debian and that messed up everything and turned it into a paper weight. I got Bodhi to install and I needed to install the information needed to connect my wifi device and it worked firt time. I can't seem to find a working way to fix the Issue. I hope this help's. Can I reset the window?
If I need to run some diagnostic program please let me know.
I don't know exactly the protocol for getting help. Don't want to have to reinstall to get up and running. I've done it three times to make sure I have it down. Repeating the experiment. I don't know where My question went.
I suppose I could do discord on my other computer.. oh I take screen shot's but the window is so big I can't see the submit or ok buttons.

One thing there I can surely help with, the last thing mentioned! The first time you open various windows in Bodhi the size may not be great, but you can resize and it will usually remember for next time (until you switch themes anyway). To move the window to get to the corner so you can resize it, hold down alt key and move it with mouse. For screen resolution, reisize that ar&r window mentioned earlier so you can see the "Moksha" Button on the far right. That will write the current settings to Moksha's startup commands.
Bluetooth I dunno anything about addresses. Run blueman, click search, and then set your device into pairing mode. Find the device, right click and select trusted. Bluetooth is always tricky. My controller has four different modes it can be set in, and is seen differently, for example I can set it to emulate xbox controller which works for some things that dont detect it in other modes....
That shows before I turn my controller on nothing connected all the things I've trusted. Then, if I turn it on it shows connected:
This also will connect if I reboot and turn it on, even without starting blueman... so it must load some service too I guess...
