(Kinda like some of the foreplay one has to endure before making a
home run, eh ?-)

I identify with that but I can't understand why I can't get Kmail
to send mail in my new SuSe 9.0 installation (keeps complaining it
can only send text, no html 8-(

BB> WC> Mozilla however runs better in Knoppix than in my Windows
installation  in the same machine on the same hard drive.

Unfortunately my SuSe 9.0 bundle didn't include Mozilla (my favorite
browser) so I downloaded "a-1686-pc-linux-mozilla.gnu-1.5-sea,tar.gz"
for linux, from the Mozilla web site, but I can't get it to install
in my SuSe. Any idea what foreplay it requires; or where I can get
a copy that will install out-of-the box like the download of the
"mozilla32-1.4-installer.exe" that works so well in my win98se
systems please ???

Ciao, Ack.
