You can draw ASCII art in Emacs 21 with your mouse. :)
Hmmm, look forward to that.
Do you do that by hand or with some app??

Hi All!
Just when things are going okay...
My system locked up and I was forced to reach for the power button (while
using Evolution and downloading tonnes of mail).
The other thing I had done which I suspect is the real problem is change
some permissions on root:root files/directories
Exposed and have gotten a bit
carried away obviously.
Thanks to you and Chesty, it was the executable bit on / which I must
have removed.
You've probably got other problems on top of this but on reading your

I had a similar problem with the latest multi-gnome-terminal.

Any clues?

Sounds like xlib6g-dev is not installed, which is about right, because the
Ximian libgtk1.2-dev package does not depend on it (this is bad).
Install that, and you should be right

Could someone please give me a pointer as to which package this should
