Ummm, your /boot partition only needs to be 5-15MB and 5 would do fine. It
only holds Lilo and kernels. Kernels are roughly 300Kb and Lilo is about

You can get around it by making sure you either don't have a "Viewport"

The other problem is that it sounds like you have 2 resolutions
Is possible to have Netscape opening the links from KMail, instead of KFM ?
Currently I don't see this ability in kmail, but a little source-code

links.
So log out of your user and log in as root. You'll only ever have to do

THAT part is taken care of, but I'm still wondering about the

multiple users running programs on the same X server?
