<font face="Courier 10 Pitch">Ever since I setup D-rats on CentOS 5
some months ago, I found that pyserial was not available from<br>
Yumex (Every repository available to suit fitted).<br>
I ran the tar from;<br>

All other requirements were obtained via yumex with no problem.<br>

I run KDE deskop as it works best with DVTool, and has a good editable
menu system.<br>
By extracting the new source versions as they came out I only needed to
edit a shell script<br>
activated from the KDE menu to run the program and any updates later.<br>
