You have to figure out the name of the executable. It is probably /not/ "Terminal"; that's the package name, although I admit that in my Ubuntu situation, the package name and the executable name happened to be the same. But in general, they are not the same. We need the rpm command that lists the files in the package named Terminal. Ok, try: rpm -ql Terminal You should get a list of files. What we're looking for will be in /usr/ bin, e.g. /usr/bin/terminal or some name that almost certainly will contain the word "terminal". Probably all lower case. Another way to figure it out is to run it from menus and then do: ps aux | grep -i terminal | grep -v grep while it's running. That should show you the command that launched it. Once you think you know what the name is, try just typing that name at a shell prompt (i.e., in the terminal, xterm, or whatever). If you have the right name, a new "terminal" will come up. Once you succeed with that, you'll know what to replace "xterm" with in your pan settings. -- David _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
