Calvin,

In addition to the suggestions i included in my last post
(which was sent from my new e-mail address so the list moderator
must approve it), the following suggestion may prove helpful:

  "...try and use the tab key to get to the next screen.  
   The "tab between fields" is the same as it is in Windows.  
   It may just not be detecting his mouse and he just needs to 
   get to the next screen to select it manually"

Raphael,

Perhaps you wouldn't mind relating your experiences with OpenLinux 3.1
and provide some/any technical details as to why you so discourage its use ?
Although i certainly appreciate and admire the quality of several distributions
(Mandrake and SuSE in particular), i find Caldera's OpenLinux 3.1 to be by far
the most stable Linux 2.4 and LSB oriented development environment. Further, the
inclusion of KDE, StarOffice and many other applications makes it an easy transition
for the Windows user. I've also included GNOME, AbiWord, xlHtml and about 500
well-integrated RPMS on the Open Source Supplement CD.
