I sent it in but did not have the close access I used to, so culd not transmit it from the build cluster. So if someone had time to build from the sprm it will be there. I am also DLing the 8.2 final like the rest of you, so I can't say for sure http://www.civileme.com/Xtart-1.1-6mdk.i586.rpm The srpm is not any more useful, because after install you can always retrieve the complete source for Xtart from /usr/bin/Xtart and learn like anyone who reads the code and comments, that it was done in a fit of picque because someone was bugging me about how to set up for another wm using Xdefaults and such--a method we ceased to employ after 7.0. Anyway, it is a snippet of code in python and runs well, and the bugfix was to change the calling method for real WMs so that consolehelper (which is called for icon clicks that need root) could properly handle the state of the environment variables. Example: in the old Xtart, clicking on the Control Center resulted in an ask for root password and nothing else, in the new one, you get the control center. Civileme
