Thanks, Lorenzo.  I'm reading up on fireHOL.  I already got most of my
apps up and running, including dar (kdar bailed hard when I tried to
install it on gnome).  Most everything else is on the desktop system I
want (except rosegarden, which I'm still trying to decide on the source
for - rosegarden4 in the repo's is seriously out of date according to
the authors, but the source is apparently tricky to compile since it
requires a version of cmake that ubuntu doesn't have yet).
