[REBOL] Re: news from my new life with linux

Hi Chris,
My minimal X-Windows is ICEWM. When you install Mandrake 8.2 with no pachage
selected, you are prompt to install Linux with "minimal-X". That's what I
chose.
My video card is a 4 Mo Matrox Mystic. Pretty old stuff, I know, but it is
fine for Windows 98.
Since my first message, I have tried to launch rebol only with XTerm. I have
changed my linux to boot on console mode where I can launch xinit for
starting a bare-bone-X-windows-system. In that case, launching view just
displays a big white box on the screen.
It is a pity I will have to use VI to edit rebol code !
And again the very same machine can run decently Rebol - Outlokk Express -
The Rebol Core PDF beeing open in the background AT THE SAME TIME !
