Well, I initially tried running this on my Linux machine. 
No luck, my linux troubleshooting skills are not all that great.
Gave up, bought a friends G3, all is well. Easy install.
Some little issues, nothing terribly difficult though.
Reading the readme's again took care of it.
Nice B&W, almost neutral results so far. Very good especially from the
"yeah right, no metamerism 2200"
I have modified the neutral curve and am printing on Epson Pro Glossy.
This was done by "eye", Ive yet to have a good 100 step scan done.
But it looks pretty good. 
75% to 95% could use a bit of a curve, these areas are too light

The items I changed are:

TOTAL INK LIMIT -36
LIMIT LC         12
LIMIT LM         12
LIMIT LK         34

Shadow and Highlight to 12
GAMMA            1.8


Some of these numbers may seem a little crazy, as I am in unfamiliar 
territory here.
but it looks OK, I ll be doing much fine tuning in the next while.
Thanks Roy
