riesco a trovare il paccehtto rpm che contiene un file necessario a
XFree 4.0
install-menu
probabilmente questo file si trova in un pachetto della cooker ... io
so come guardare nei pacchetti ma non vorrei dovermeli
Many thanks

Yes, and the D4X program is working my DSL connection as I write this.
For many of you who have had freeze-ups at disk partitioning time or at

I only have one comment to add to this discussion that bears repeating,
