I agree somewhat.. but it's not really much different then a default install of 7.3.. just.. cleaner.. I don't like how it says "Instant Messagner" rather then "Gaim" but like you said, that's to help with moving from windows. But I didn't have any problem going to a terminal or actually using it.. I don't like how RH8 doesn't come with any MP3 stuff, also for some stupid reason it wouldn't run at 1152x864 with RH8 but would with 7.2.. it could do 1024x768 and 1280x1024 no problem.. Even when I tried to force it with the XFree config it wouldn't work.. Oh well. _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
