Thank's for the reply, so how would i go about of updating it? does it need to be updated all the time im sure she can run months on end with out a 'single update' ? - just curious

You have links to cmus mplayer etc and fvwm2? how would i go about to install them ? i will plan to install openbsd on a spare thinkpad laptop soon 5.2 can you tell me the command to install fvwm2 then ? i've also been searching day and night now for openbsd tutorials, trying to find books to buy im sure they are still relevant ? and yes i know now they make a new version every 6 months so 5.3 will be in 2013 but are the changes a lot of simple ones? im sure i can update 5.2 to 5.3 in the future by a simple command yes?

and yes im checking the docs now cheers.
