Hello Steve,
Pop! and there she is. Arachne Linux runs fine on my SuSE-mix with X
and WindowMaker 6.1x. X runs with 1024 Hicolor on my Matrox so the
Arachne-window has a good size. PPP runs with wvdial. All in all it
was easy doing after takeing the ggi-2.Ob2.1-1.rpm with yast, all runs
out of the box.- Clarence give X a try :)
regards Joerg
