Okay, fair enough. However, I decided against using the Debian packages since they are at least 25% or so larger than the Mozilla.org tarballs which is a consideration on a dial-up line. I would have thought that, if anything, the debs would have been smaller due to dynamic linking to GTK 2.4. Maybe my assumption that the Mozilla.org builds are statically linked is incorrect. - Nate >> -- Wireless | Amateur Radio Station N0NB | Successfully Microsoft Amateur radio exams; ham radio; Linux info @ | free since January 1998. http://www.qsl.net/n0nb/ | "Debian, the choice of My Kawasaki KZ-650 SR @ | a GNU generation!" http://www.networksplus.net/n0nb/ | http://www.debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
