I'm taking the stock installation of a downloaded version 3.1.1, made 
available to me as a purchaser of 3.0, saying "yes" to the "do you want 
to access the local host file system" question, and using the bridged 
option for networking. At all times, I took the default for everything, 
including setting up Samba. Networking is set up, and I can access the 
Internet.

I just can't see my home directory. The computer icon is there, but 
there is nothing in it.
