I have an update for it to version 1.3.1 in a file called *konversation-1.3.1.tar.bz2* and need to install it. I'm attaching a .txt file so as you can see what commands I used from "terminal" trying to install it. When I get to the point of using # ./configure, nothing happens at all, and that's where I am stuck. > > > . > Eric - A > . > > ____________________________________________________________ > Penny Stock Jumping 2000% > Sign up to the #1 voted penny stock newsletter for free today! > http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3141/4c6705d4a94de7852dcst01vuc > --------------------------------------------------- > PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us > To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: > http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss > -- A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
