Alrighty then. Thanks. I'll give it a try.

Just one more thing - I've been trying to get the latest version of 
Firefox (1.5 Beta 2) installed on the computer I'm running Fedora Core 
on in class. To make a long story short - I can't. They don't have an 
actual install file (at least one that works), and ./configure isn't 
working either. What am I doing wrong? And has anyone else had this 
problem. They do have, basically, all the program files in there, so you 
can unpack the file in your home directory and then run it normally. 
However, I'd like to have something more... practical than downloading 
and unpacking it over, and over, and over again, if I were running it on 
a network - which is, in part, why I am taking the class - because my 
major is "Network and Microcomputer Specalist", and I'd like to know 
what to do in a network enviroment with this situation. Any suggestions?
