Hello All, I have been used to invoking Ghostscript to display my postscript efforts on this Thinkpad running Ubuntu, but it did not do so with the "fresh" desktop install of Debian. I have looked at the default output device on this Thinkpad, and it is x11alpha, but that appears to not be available with the Debian installed version of Ghostscript. I would appreciate pointers as to enabling that, even if I have to grab the source via this computer, then transfer via CDR and compile. The desktop will be on the net in due course, but it is dial up access, and I am still looking closely at being able to disable Gnome Netmanager in such a way that I can still learn about it for when I install for novices. It does not appear cleanly in Synaptic, but I can see parts of it. I have been scratching my ead as to what is the "head" of the app, where I should start, rather than a piecemeal approach. I also need to have the head space to sort out setting up pon and poff, rather than using wvdial as I have been. Meatspace has been of higher priority at this time. Regards, Mark Trickett
