 * Okay – I’ve made some progress here. This is to with paths. I had the 2.8.0 installation
   in a directory called /cgi-bin/wordpress and now I’ve installed it into the root
   and everything works. I’m presuming that I my hosting ISP is obfuscating the 
   path somehow and foxing the path determining function. Where can I override the
   path settings?

 * Ironically with the theme trouble I’ve had I did a fresh install of 2.7.1 which
   also didn’t do what I expected and so I did an in place update to 2.8 which went
   fine.

 * Here’s an addendum, I also activated the Hello Dolly plug-in which happily does
   what it should on the dashboard and the admin pages and tools, but doesn’t display
   on the site main page either. Something awry here and I’m pondering the templates
   and styles paths – where are they defined?

 * And if you’ve tried setting the permissions to 777 the owner shouldn’t matter.
