I have updated the templates and the manual page. All the base,
MainModule and MiniModules all fit nicely together.  I done a couple
of test build and I am happy with the results.

Like I said before - I plan to a release when I have finished updating
MorphingMorphix. Alas the kernel is only 2.6.15, but Alex is playing
with the base module.

Thanks to Jure for pointing me in the direct of webconverger package.
It means that I have got ridden of the horrible tar-ball I was using.
All Debian -type packages now apart from the two lines to set navbar
on/off and homepage. Guess I be buying Jure a beer next week :)

As I have moved away from the tar-ball, an upgrade from 0.0.3 is no
longer possible. Full rebuilt at the moment. [But hey its only two
lines :) ].  The plan is to have an option in MorphingMorphix to
download MorphixLiveKiosk_0.0.4_MainModule, then ask the following:-
  * Do you want the the navigation bar visible ?
  * What homepage url ?
  * Which Graphics Files to be used for re-branding ?
Then out spits a shinny customized MorphixLiveKiosk.

But if anyone has got an idea how to help with the pdf problem, please
point me in the right direction.
