Here is the reply I received from "elx" re: some short-coming with their
distro. Its almost scary to think that anyone would be foolish enough to run
their system mainly as root. Their approach is starting to look and feel ___
almost Micro$oftish :( Has anyone been able to find any source code on their
site? If its there, I'm definately missing it, I've looked but no joy.

Hi Ted,
This spell check is not matured in K mail , it is still an experimental
feature which soon be made proper. In linux world every bit of code is
written with great passion and on the best effort basis. But we are
working to make things better. ELX believes that the main user will
always be root and therefore it does not give full priviledges to all
users. To grant access to any device you can log in as root and run
open your file manager and can grant access to any device or file.
This is more of a secuirty feature.
Please do keep sending your suggestions and input.
Thanks for your support & Happy New Year
ELX Team
