pplet. I'd suggest listing Simple-Launcher as OS2006 compatible after you get positive feedback from a significant number of users. Add my vote. It is a valuable tool. --Don On Sep 8, 2007, at 10:51 AM, Mikhail Sobolev wrote: > Hi Don > > On Fri, Sep 07, 2007 at 06:12:31PM

Application Launcher

Thanks for taking the time to do an explanation using the example e2fsprogs package. I kinda get it after digesting your points, but seem to still be missing something. I have a 770 running OS 2006 3.2006.49-2. So following your explanation, but instead changing from bora (N800) to gregale
