[huskerlug] Re: Advice -- RedHat version support(No free lunch!)

        Well, as I said you usually have to work at it.  As I said there's one
computer I just have to shut down when the mouse locks up, or perhaps 
I should say everything.   My only problem seems to be with my kmail 
settings.  Most everything works so far.   I'll probably get tired of 
it eventually and back up what I need and restart over with a higher 
resolution which I don't like.
        I think it depends quite a bit on the hardware also.  Anyway, you
do about once what I've done untold times on this one computer with 
rebooting and EXT2 file system would be dead!   I doubt if Windows 
would like that behavior much either.   ---Jim
