Couldn't do a "apt-get update" on antelope because /etc/init.d/dhcp-client was missing. apt-get reported a dpkg error about cleaning up. So I created it as an executable (simply #!/bin/true) and it was removed (with "dpkg --force-remove-reinstreq --remove dhcp-client") and the apt-get worked.

Installed konqueror (and related Debian packages) on antelope. Tried to run via VNC, but received: "Unable to start dr. konqi" and some other KCrash errors. I found a posting that indicated that VNC needed to start at color depth 16 (instead of default 8). So when I ran it again, the load went to 2.8 (but no high cpu usage by any programs). After waiting a few minutes, I stopped konqueror (I didn't see it yet) and VNC and the load went back down.
