Hi Julian, Just type "switchdesk KDE" (or GNOME or...) to change desktops. For the cd burning, you will probably script your way through a few utilities, but cdrecord will probably do the bulk of what your after. It is likely already installed. "man cdrecord" If the 266 had a good video card & decent ram, and you have a fast primary machine, you could just run remote X. -- Pete Nesbitt, rhce -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
