In fact, and probably I am at fault for not asking this before or even googling for it, are there any app user groups within the Indian Linux community? It seems to me this is probably the best way to get some sharp usage of apps and therefore linux based desktops accelerated. Most of the problems posed here on this list appear to be related to desktop or server issues. Someone made a rude ;-) comment about GIMP and scribus in re comparisons with better-known proprietary tools. I have used the former, not the latter, and in many ways it is as convenient as Photoshop. I saw a Scribus presentation at a major trade fair and was really impressed (I have used both Adobe and Quark). Vickram -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
