If you wish to update, do the following: * cd desktop/gdm * edit the GAR Makefile change the version: 2.13.0.1 -> 2.13.0.2 * update the checksums run: make makesum you are now ready to build * make install > make_install.log 2>&1 & -Joseph ================================================================== On Mon, 2005-12-05 at 03:10 +0000, Jeremy Huntwork wrote: > Joseph E.
