I've actually come to like the taskbar from the M$ WinBlows world. I use icewm on my PC at home - small and usable (pain to configure). Is there a site to find out which wm's are available for PPC LINUX? > > 2) get rlogin, etc. installed > > # apt-get install rsh-client Actually, this was done for me. I was using dselect, and selected "Install/Update" without selcting anything - it autobagically grabbed a bunch of stuff I wanted/needed (lynx, rsh-client) as well as some stuff that I probably will go back and remove (tetex, rsh-server, etc.) I'm really lking the Debian packaging system much better than RPMs. I may switch on my home machine! > > PS Get a USB card and a 3 button USB mouse. Saved my X life. Well, this is a stealthy install on a spare HD on a mac at work, so I don't have alot of options for hardware upgrades. I can't justify a 3-button mouse when they think I'm use Mac OS 8.6. I found a way to map F11 to button 2 and F12 to button 3 (by searching the mailing list archives). -- Paul F.
