I use the terminal because I spend a significant amount of my time remotely accessing other systems and devices. And while Juniper has a web GUI that looks somewhat useful (on the J series anyway), Cisco's is horrible and buggy. Tru64's web GUI is weird (and in my servers, disabled), I never tried the one on Solaris, and RHEL doesn't have one, so I'll be using a terminal constantly for the foreseeable future. Remember, the terminal is not just for local access; it is also pretty much a requirement for many types of remote access (telnet/SSH and serial console). There is nothing you can do with a local desktop to replace that need. However, I don't use right-click to get a terminal. I add a panel button for xterm (not gnome-terminal) and set my default desktop up to include 2 tall xterms at login. -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
