That is interesting. Between the Ubuntu live CD that John Ronan's doing, the LSB build, the VMware virtual machines, and this, it should be possible to make getting xastir up and running really quick and easy. Still, what I'm finding in preparing for my presentation tomorrow (at which I intend to distribute localized xastir virtual machines to interested parties) is that it still takes a fair amount of documentation to explain how to run xastir, even after making it really easy to install. Still, I'll see in the coming weeks if I can win any hearts and minds over to this software by spending time up front to make it easier to obtain. -- Tom Russo KM5VY SAR502 DM64ux http://www.swcp.com/~russo/ Tijeras, NM QRPL#1592 K2#398 SOC#236 AHTB#1 http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?DDTNM "And, isn't sanity really just a one-trick pony anyway?
