I think if you can set up apt, the rest of these problems will go away. Do you mean that you don't have good entries in your sources.list, or are you getting some errors? IF we can work through this, then it will be much easier to just install the precompiled binaries than trying to deal with the dependency nightmare of compiling everything from source. And yes, I agree, the icons are not very console browser friendly, but then, I hardly ever look there - I use apt-cache search instead. -- Stephen Gran |What we cannot speak about we must pass over in steve@lobefin.net |silence. http://www.lobefin.net/~steve | -- Wittgenstein
