plug for Pogolinux is in order - they are simply great . Was that allowed??=

can't install that way yet. and yes it is listed as 1.6.6.

So until the CD-ROMs arrive I am downloading and installing those packages =
I=20
need right now. Have to be done before Wednesday - don't know that I will=

make it though.=20
