hello - thanks for the help. though still unresolved... > Look for osso-xterm in /var/lib/install/usr/bin. i found it (just using the web browser for my file system), and it's there! however, when i click on it, it just starts the dialog for downloading the file. i saved it to documents folder. and then in file manager, went to the documents folder and clicked on 'osso-xterm', and said 'unknown filetype'. it's an app/octet-stream 2.3 MB the standard xterm app file weird? how can i fix or amend this without a command prompt? (i have a chicken + egg problem!) thanks, christine
