 Does anyone know of any linux terminals/consoles

 do a little bit more than just display the
 characters
 you type? insert no joke here plz 
 Some that would provide animations and eye candy
 perhaps? For example, when you typed to the
 terminal
 the most recent character would very start bright
 and
 slowly fade to a darker color as time passes. I
 think
 something like that would look a bid more
 interesting,
 anyone agree? The concept could be taken much
 further...
 
 I tried breifly looking on freshmeat, but perhaps I
 didn't look hard enough. Or perhaps there isn't
 such
 a terminal out there =O 
 Advice? Tips? Help?
 
 Thanks in advance,

[newbie] 9.2 update

2004-01-28 Thread Dodd GS07 David J
Title: 9.2 update






I have been using 9.2 for several months and at first had a problem loading ethereal because it wanted tcpdump and wouldn't allow me to install. I fixed this by going over to http://rpm.pbone.net/ I found everything I needed to make 9.2 work fine. But when I did an update last night to fix some vuls in gaim and totem the menu changed. I cant see any of the old icons, they changed to folders, and some programs I cant view. I should be able to open them from a term but what happened. Anyone else have a similar problem.

thanks
