Hi All,

Apologies all round for my bit of a rant earlier today.  Neil has kindly 
explained the source of my problems (if you'll pardon the pun!) and I 
now know where the problem is.  Rob Beard will probably recognise the 
following acronym common to tech support if nobody else does.

PEBCAK.

Problem Exists Between Chair And Keyboard.

*ahem*

Anyway, at this stage I'm scratching my head a bit as CUPS, KOPete and 
GIMP-Print are all past the make install stage, but I don't know what to 
do next.  My slightly logical thought was "OK I've *made* the install 
files (at least that's what make install does isnt it?), does that mean 
I actually have to run an install script now?"  If it does I can't find 
one to run.

Hmm.  Bedtime.  Definitely!

Kind regards,

Julian
