I am in your debt, Sire. I'm glad that some folks have picked up the idea after all this time. Keeping the ports tree current here on my server is a huge time sink and why I run Ubuntu as a desktop. --Ubuntu is << flawless; the festival and ktts* stuff fails. On my EEE-900A pure Debian just- works. ---Still. in a few more years I may switch back to Deb/FBSD, :_) Yum//kk; i just chewed down 17 pain pills, and whilst i'm still rambling, a question that I have had for years:: what amination utility is it that makes video apps work on linuc but FBSD doesn't have? (I was just able to watch Frontline. It was plug'n'play on my Desktop, but nogo on my server.) gary PS: to the others onlist who wrote off:: emails be comin' roundthe mountain. -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org http://www.thought.org Public Service Unix The 7.98a release of Jottings: http://jottings.thought.org/index.php http://journey.thought.org ethic CommUNIXcations: http://pagetwo.thought.org/FWIW.php
