Now that's useful.  I was able to select icewm.  A bit clumsy, but at least it 
runs.  Mozilla, qcad, gimp, gnumeric, abiword (not used it before, but if OO 
isn't there... ) quite possible to do most things until I discover how to 
reinstate KDE.  No usable mail - has mutt, but it complains no mailbox.  I 
suppose I'd need to configure fetchmail first.
