I will check this out when I get home this evening.I come from a Windows background and have been using Mandrake for the last 3 months and all this was configured for me.I just purchased Linux In A Nutshell and Linux Unleashed.I have some learning ahead of me ! yup, the /etc/x11/xf86config file. > Could you tell me where to get the Netscape Debs? I don't see them on the Debian ftp site or the Netscape site.Thanks in advance. try using dselect. search for something like netscape-base-whatever. install it, and dselect will work out dependencies for you. also, not to brow beat you, but when you reply to a mailing list, it is absolutely crucial that you keep the subject intact. many of us are using mutt, which threads email based on the subject line. i myself dump email without reading it with meaningless subjects like "help" or "this doesn't work" or "i need assistance". i just happened to recognize your name, so i read your email. pete
