This month Konqueror is no longer running Java apps AFAICT, although not
a good time to try and sort such issues out.

It doesn't open the Java console window. Kaffe is installed and working,
so either Konqueror broke, or I broke something in the settings.

I really don't need that kind of hassle at work, it was bad enough
having to boot into Windows 98 on my laptop to access the Digichat board
I was visiting at home.

It is one of the people doing debian packages for Open Office. You have
one of the many dictionary tools installed right?

I just discovered openoffice.debian.net, and they start in testing.

Beginning to wonder if anyone uses "stable" as a Desktop.
