Linuxconf was one of the things that really put me off Red Hat.
It's very good when it works but I had a lot of trouble with it so in
the end I gave up and tried other distributions.

I've since found and used Open Linux which is very nice. Has two
setup tools which are Lizard and Lisa and looks like windows when
it's running. If anyone wants a demo CD please say so. I can bring
two over to the pub on Friday night. Nice AV presentation in windoze
with a sort of gee wiz American presentation that sort of suggests
that you should smoke too much or take drugs.

Oh well... must go and open the other tin :-)
