The stable release just would not install properly. I had the most problems with setting up X enviroment. xf86config would just not do it no matter what I tried! So I scraped the install and went to your "testing" version and was quite pleased! Thanks! <Description of the install, in prose, and any thoughts, comments and ideas you had during the initial install.>The only thing I found a little uncomfortable were the install screen colors but Hey! No Biggie! Thanks again for everyones hard work. You have a winner! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
