newsx problems
I am trying to install the newsx NNTP client on my boxen and
am getting nowhere at hyperspeed. I don't know what the
fsck I'm doing wrong, but as I said, I'm getting nowhere.
For the record I am running testing.
I sued into root (naturally) and did my usual
apt-get install -u newsx

Selecting previously deselected package newsx.
(Reading database ... 68075 files and directories currently
installed.)
Unpacking newsx (from .../archives/newsx_1.6-1_i386.deb) ...
Setting up newsx (1.6-1) ...
I read the manpage (not one of the easier ones to read *sigh*)
Then I try to start newsx, and the response is:
killerbyte:~# su news
killerbyte:/root$ newsx
sh: newsx: command not found
killerbyte:/root$

So, can anyone tell me what, obvious thing I am missing?
Thanks
