I've read the README - pointless. I've been looking for a HOWTO
or something. I've tried looking for something by Roman, but I can't
seem to find anything. I've got QT installed (3.0.3) so, if I remember
correctly from the kernel mailing list, I'm set. I can't remember though
if there environment variables to set or not.

Oh well, thanks anyway. Back to google.
