Ok, I am using a terminal in my X session as well. I am actually using mutt which I like to use in text mode. I like text mode much more than graphical. I use graphical for those times when someone wants a document in a window$-specific format, for watching videos, for watching tv and for current web technologies. I use a distro called Vinux which gives you a great choice of which mode to use. It is much easier to deal with than starting a ubuntu live cd and mucking around in inaccessible-world until you can get all that started. Try this: http://www.vinuxproject.org I think you will be pleased with it. Sincerely: Doug Smith
