   Thanks for your reply err...No? :-)   
   That is one of the readme files I have been (trying to) use.   
   I got stuck at step 2.

   What does:   
   "Run from the top of the source tree:"   
   and   
   "$ fakeroot debian/rules binary"   
   actually mean?   
      
   Do I have to cd to the directory first.   
   I downloaded the file to my desktop.   
      
   "$ fakeroot" doesn't seam to work in ubuntu-6.06.   
      
   Should/can I use "sudo" instead of $ fakeroot?   
      
   It's probably me but I have tried running that script every which way    
   with no success what so ever.

   That would be great.

   I haven't tried it yet, although I have been told the colour scheme is    
   much more agreeable.
