Fine. Although it always annoyed me that my $HOME filled up with spurious dotfiles whose origin I'm not necessarily sure of, and that a good installer could know to remove them if the package were purged. Or is there a better solution? (I'm not sure it is gconf) Regards Jeff -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
