'billl' is a seldom used extra user account I have added to my system for experimenting and playing around with things Linux. I was most definitely not in the 'billl' user account when I used the script. I have no idea how the 'games' group got into the mix. I have tried using the script to install from both 'bill' (single 'l') and 'root' with the same result. Needless-to-say, org-mode ==> version still gives me 4.67. I would just install from a tarball, but I am still uncertain exactly which directory I want to copy to, unzip and make from. The only 'org' file I have is /usr/share/emacs/22.1/lisp/textmodes/org.elc -- Regards Bill, Emacs 22.1.1 Fedora 8_x64
