Hence the reason it's no longer in *Ubuntu. Mandriva keeps packages around for years and years, even after being unmaintained and they rebuild them against a newer KDE/Gnome or whatever. I know this well since I ran the distro for 4+ years and still build packages for the distro. It's crazy, but it's true. kuickshow is a goner in most all distros. -- With kind regards, Cliff Wade (Hawkwind) Registered Linux User #362532 Registered Kubuntu User #331 <a href="http://seerofsouls.com">http://seerofsouls.com</a> <a href="http://linuxfordummies.org"> http://linuxfordummies.org</a> <a href="http://urpmi-addmedia.org">http://urpmi-addmedia.org</a> IRC Channels (<a href="http://irc.freenode.net">irc.freenode.net</a>): #LFD #Kubuntu #Ulteo
