It's not a question of *me* not wanting a GUI. I'm asking whyinhell *anyone* would want one. What does it enhance? What's the design goal? So far the only thing I've ever seen in print is that it needs to be done because the lamers want it. Debian strives for technical excellence. So supposedly, adding a GUI to the installer improves things somehow? -- Marc Wilson | The only problem with being a man of leisure is that [EMAIL PROTECTED] | you can never stop and take a rest.
