No, just a housekeeper that panics at the sight of the printed
word. Hehe.

It's just aptitude install'ed with a mention in grub's menu.lst
file, and I'm just running the ltlk hardware synthesizer. System's slow
enough trying software synthesis in Orca, so I haven't been very
motivated to try the software module beyond a few unsuccessful
experiments. I tried compiling the kernel via the apt-src route and
spent two days waiting for it to compile, and got left with kernel
packages compiled for all platforms. <grins> If I didn't know any
better, I'd think I was running Windows, as something like that
happening smacks of "do it our wayism." Makes me want to go back to
4DOS.
