Re: [Pkgutil-users] Problems Using Pkgutil

[Fred S. <fre...@ho...>]

Good afternoon Peter and group,
 
I am elsewhere and I am about to hit the road for Atlanta in a few hours.  I won't be able to try your suggestions until I return--The Sun Blade 150 is not a portable computer.
 
I will be back around the 9th or the 10th.
 
Thank you,
 
 
Fred Strickland
