Arrrgh; I apologize for that fumble-fingers moment. I think I just sent an unfinished message. What I was going to say was that gpm appears to be active on the minimal install ISO. That comes before the stage tarball. Or is the proposal to remove gpm altogether from the install ISO? I would be unhappy with that, to say the least. -- Walter Dnes <waltd...@waltdnes.org> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
