Here's my 2 cents (if it's worth even that much since I'm a Linux
Newbie); anyway, I've had much better experience with apt-get myself and
have experienced lockups with yum also. I like the Synaptic front end as
well (Typical of a newbie). Learning a lot from all these emails, please
keep it up.

Thanks
