Well, that was a non-event... installed, and after about 15 minutes, removed M-13 xfce. could not even find a version of pan newer than 0.136 in synaptic, and could not find my 0.139 get-deb version. I found the at-spi stuff interesting and checked if it were installed. It was, and since I do not need any of that, I removed all the 4 files involved. will see what now happens. bob _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
