Why do I get the feeling you didn't do a search on Fresh Meat (http://www.freshmeat.net/) before asking that question? Must be cause you are right :-). I am still learning where to look for stuff within linux and elsewhere. I know of freshmeat and others. It is just a lot of stuff to organize at one time. -- Jeff Malka [EMAIL PROTECTED] Registered Linux User 348854 Keep in touch with http://mandrakeforum.com: Subscribe the "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" mailing list.

I thought it might be the case that you were still learning. Otherwise I would have been much nastier. :-) By now I expect you have answered your own question. It is courteous to do some research before asking on a list. Fresh Meat is a good place to do exactly this sort of research. -- -- C^2 No windows were crashed in the making of this email.
