Dear CBS<br>
<br>
I apt-get -d dist-upgrade<br>
<br>
Grant would let me install it<br>
<br>
I t took him hours remotely to do it (thank you yet again Grant) <img

<br>
I'm afraid I don't understand why he had to do it step by step but maybe
he could re explain it to us later<br>
<br>
<br>
He kept Mozilla and Galeon at the previous level to not break the flash viewers
to accomodate us<br>
we got the new kde and icewm the kde is alright its differnt<br>
<br>
the text wouldn't work on gaim at first but he fixed that<br>
the new xchat totally confused me I got it set on David's side but I had
a lot of trouble finding my chanel on my side but I did find it and connected
this morning<br>
<br>
Grant put monopoly (chanel) on and I played a game with him he creamed me
<br>
<br>
I have less games great 86 was too many<br>
<br>
I love the new icewm it has a light coloured screen and in general apperance
it has lighter colurs in general and just love it I like the new menu and
I have mozilla on the task bar great<br>
<br>
I now use (after a LUV suggestion) icewm for internet and kde for composing
and printing I like to have all the graphical interfaces sometimes but
I like my internet to be faster<br>
<br>
I have tried lynx but I get lost 4 pages in I will persist though I don't
like to be beaten<br>
<br>
I think this is mostly Sid the evil next door neighbour from Toy Story I
haven't tried Open office or kOffice or Abiword yet so we'll see<br>
<br>
The idea of this was to see if it would help Grant build and configure Klandscape
<br>
<br>
Now if I could just work out how to use wine<br>
<br>
Accutually I've told David I've got too many Linux things to learn so look
here is some sites and docs for wine you read it and work out how to use
it for your 3d Landscape<br>
He is a lot more happier since we got the new replacement modem and have
such a great dial up service now. He is getting on the net more and he
is learning how to print things and save pages and is starting to do his
TAFe assignments on OpenOffice at last I think I can now call him a computer
user at last<br>
<br>
cheers happy happy Avery <img
