1) Last minute tip:
If your colours flash when using UC, that means that your colour
map is full. Simply do Ctrl-F2 Global Options in UC, switch off
the startup message, save the database (!) and restart. UC will
then use fewer colours.


2) Unix Cockpit unzipping instructions:
If you don't have the 'gunzip' decompression program, ftp it from
here as well. After transmitting gunzip, do a

chmod +x gunzip

to make the program executable. After transmitting uc, do

/gunzip uc-*.gz

on the gzipped version. Also do a

chmod +x uc-*

after successful transmission. Voila!
