Of course, I *did* know. But there are instances when one does want to change a running system. There were a number of things (Firefox, OpenOffice 2.0, etc.) I wanted to add to my system, and I thought that installing an all-new system was a good way of doing that. I was dead wrong. Greetings, Jörg.
