YES! that worked. Well.. tetex was installed on my system already, as aide depended (and a bunch of other stuff according to "etcat -d tetex") , so I don't understand why that failed, mayhaps I should have added -tetex to my useflags right from the start since it's a huge compile! Main thing though, problem is solved! thanks alot! -- ooM -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
