John, I guess I am not arguing against hand holding, but rather a death grip. You may use the GUI if you like, and sometimes it is more convienent, but it should feed the same text files, regardless of distribution, and it should be possible to edit those files by hand. mg On Sunday 27 April 2003 14:52, John Pettigrew wrote:

But, surely, is there not room for consumerf-cused distros as well as hardcore distros? That is, distros that *do* hold your hand and make things easy. This is one of the things i like about SuSE - it doesn't demand that I use the command line for everything. Linux heresy, perhaps, but I only use linux because it does the job (of a desktop, business PC) better and more stable than Windows.
