Also, there is a dsl extension (somewhere) that allows a /home/damnsmall/.xserverrc to be automatically placed in /home/damnsmall so you do not have to do the xsetup.sh choices each time you boot the Dell.
(Xserver, mouse, screen size and resolution)

Rapidweather,
I know that you know how to separate out parts of your filetool.lst. You have stated that you have done such with firefox. Now, one's .xserverrc is very specific to one's system. So it would not be something to download from the Repository. In fact, it would not even be a dsl. It would be a .tar.gz with only one file in it, /home/damnsmall/.xserverrc. Call it myXsetup.tar.gz and place it on the myDSL partition. This is the easiest "personal extension" to create.

That's a nice idea... In fact, I did that for my entire .xtdesktop - called it myXdesktop.tar.gz. Works like a charm.
ke4nt, I've tried my best to make it work, but I can't find a syslog that tells me where everything for this java thing installs to.

Roberts, John, any of you know how to setup a syslog so that I can tell what's changed on the filesystem when I install something ?

syslog should be running if on hard drive install. For liveCD you car start it. sudo syslogd.
Also you can use the gnu find command. Look up the man page for more details. Say using the cmin option.

Which would be under /var/log/syslog, correct ?

Sometimes I hate my stupidity...
