I'm not real clear about how packages are installed when not using the advanced package manager, or the synaptic package manager.
So, what is the criteria for where you install a deb package? For instance: In which folder would you install the Nx client deb package? And better yet ....why? What folder do I put the launcher in? Another question I have about nx client: can you install nx client, and nx server on the same box? Would there be any conflict? Also, I am wondering the same thing about open office 3.0 I want to install open office on my ubuntu feisty, but I don't know what folder to put it in, or what folder to put the launcher in. (I know feisty is outdated, but every time I tried to update to 7.10, my old inspirion 8100 would freeze up at the point where the cups daemon started loading. I tried it over a half dozen times, and the same thing happened. I suspect that maybe there is a bad sector, but, of course, that is just a guess, I don't have any real evidence. I wonder if it could be due to outdated architecture.) Maybe Hardy will install from a cd install, but my cd drive broke. That is why I want to try a usb flash drive. Furthermore, I think there might even be a better chance if I use ubuntu light with the Icewm. I just want to use ice because it think that the snappy factor is the primary feature to look for, and I can load whatever I want in the future.

I also noticed that there is a remote desktop tool in the system preferences menu. Should I ssh his computer, and then use the remote desktop tool, or is there as better and more secure way of doing _________________________________________________________________ See how Windows® connects the people, information, and fun that are part of your life http://clk.atdmt.com/MRT/go/119463819/direct/01/
