Uh, excuse me, but it does matter. The glint thing that runs under
x-windows will "see" the files I download onto my HPFS partition using
Netscape/2 under Warp. But when I boot linux and download a .rpm to my home
directory the glint program cannot be convinced that there are any rmp files
there. It is a puzzler. Could be permissions, I have not looked at that.
Better copy this message to my house so I can remember to check.
