Ed,
I had problems trying to launch tuxtype2 before and just tried launching 
the program and it successfully launched. I don't know if it is the 
configuration or the program maintainer straightened out the problems 
with the program. I made no changes to the configuration for X or any 
other system changes.
Anyway, the little fingers all over the world will be happy with the 
program working again.

Jim
