Yes, I really need to add a listing of the known apt front-ends to http://linuxmafia.com/debian/tips . aptitude is quite popular, and is a fairly clean and easy-to-use ncurses utility. Some people also like synaptic, an X11/GTK+ (I think) utility that's roughly similar, but more fancy. There are a ton of others. I have a list on paper, somewhere. Personally, I just use apt-get and apt-cache from the command line. -- Cheers, "Reality is not optional." Rick Moen -- Thomas Sowell [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
