The home page has a 'demo' which shows you what it would do without actually doing it. Has anyone found a (legal) download of PM?

Why not tell us about your project idea and then let's find out which toolkit would be the best to use? Or do you have any political reasons to prefer GTK and C over Qt and C++ ? The reason why I am asking that is my being a passionate C++ and Qt-Hacker. I am sometimes kind of confused to see people prefer another toolkit: for me Qt is the perfect solution for X or Windows programs. :) Greetings, Karl-Heinz ___ techtalk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linux.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/techtalk

I had the same problem once, but I just kept going back and forth (delete dos partition, delete logical partition, delete dos partition, etc...) for a little while, and then all of a sudden it worked. Hmm. Call it a feature, I guess... I still keep a fairly small windows partition.
