Thanks, Steve. :-)

I run Lenny and not Squeeze (when I would normally be using Squeeze by now)
because I have not yet found a desktop that I like anywhere near as much as
KDE 3.x.x. Trinity KDE 3.5.11 is looking really promising, and I am hoping
that by the time I really have to move up from Lenny with backports, either
because some of my hardware is too new or because I really want something in
Squeeze and don't want to backport it myself, I shall be able to use Trinity
KDE. If not, then at that point I shall just have to choose where to go.

Thanks again, Steve. That is one of the routes I was considering, but I was
afraid of trying people's patience!
