I'll second that. I'm using it here on a couple of woody machines.

The end effect is the same either way. Also, I believe the original poster said he was using his system command-line only - the task-helix-core package also depends on the core XWindows package, and the task-helix-core package will bring in the Sawfish-Gnome window manager. -- Mike Werner KA8YSD | He that is slow to believe anything and | everything is of great understanding, '91 GS500E | for belief in one false principle is the Morgantown WV | beginning of all unwisdom.
