Oooops... I'll need the "load the module" instructions too. Sorry to be so green. I just want to use, I don't want to learn programming. Although I'll admit when I first started using RH a couple of years ago I got great satisfaction out of ungzipping, de-tarring, making, installing and seeing the programs actually run. Trouble is I haven't done it in a long time and I forget the exact commands and sequence.
