yellowdog-general digest, Vol 1 #643 - 7 msgs

[David Tisdell]

I just updated to 1.6 today. I won't be able to tell
until after a couple of working days if this has
solved my issues or not.
When I warned about compiling from source, I was not
implying that it is a bad thing. It just can be an
intimidating concept depending on your experience.
If my problems are solved, I will post here.
