  you wanted to capture.
  You clicked the mouse.
  The icon probably changed and now you strech the box, with this

  You clicked again.
 
  At this point you had some sort of graphics file that displayed the 
  portion of the screen that you had captured, which you could (say)
  send to the printer, or include in a mail message.
 
  That routine is long gone, I have to assume that something has replaced
  it, but I have no idea what it would be.  Any ideas?
 
 

 Don't know what X program would take its place...maybe xwd helps a bit
 
 But, if you are running Gnome there is always gnome-screenshot and KDE
 has ksnapshot.
 


You can use xv for  this.

 Scroll down for the skype installation. I used the skype repository. Yum

 I have been using Amarok for awhile, but I find
 it so frustrating to use when it comes to updating

 under heavy load.
 
 I liked Amarok's layout/list and other nifty features
 but it is getting to the point that I am unable to
 consistently keep my tags straight.  Amarok seems
 to have trouble handling ID3 tags (I use Audio Tags
 Tools externally in attempts to force tags they way I
 want them to be and ATT supports ID3 v1.0
 and v2.0) but Amarok has a nasty habit of
 reading these tags improperly and/or inconsistently
 so it seems, so I am ready to move on.
 
 What do you recommend as a replacement?

 I noticed this behavior before, when running Evo (connector)
 and Kmail(IMAP) but forgotten because I was using Outlook for
 a long time due to circumstances, but once I went back to
 working on F8 I needed to have email there as well and that is
 when the SHTF.  Oh, my... that's right - that is why I dropped
 Evo for Kmail for Thunderbird, none which worked well for me,
 each having it's own particulars.
 
 I think I'll try seakmonkey next, and see what it offers.
