hello,
I am looking to make a stable Linux desktop environment.
I already have one from another Linux distribution, but I
am very unhappy with the direction Suse is taking.
That's the politics.
Now the practise.
I have the complete CD set from 2.2 first release.
I understand there is a new release
have and use apt-get to upgrade to 2.2r2 via the Internet.

Hello
Mutt and kmail2.
Mutt I use to send quick mails, and quickly sort through
new emails. I save ones I need to think about and usually
use kmail2 sometime later to respond etc.
90% of my mail I deal with directly through "mutt".
I cannot stress how good mutt is :)

I would recommend Grub, what you should do is download
and untar it and read the documentation that it supplies, it
is very good. And it looks quite nice when you boot..pretty

There have been lots pf questions about grub.
My experience of it is that it is easy to install and
remarkably powerful. I suggest you get hold of it and
read the supplied documentaion (which is good) a couple
of times - it answers all your questions :)
