Thanks.
I did that (before I got your reply), but I'm guessing I did something
(else) wrong, because my system ended up horribly broken. Or at least X
was. So I backed up /home/richard to another machine and installed woody
from scratch, from the boot floppies.
It's working nicely now :-)
Well - mostly. But I'll leave that for another thread.
