The point is the user shouldn't have to 'make it'. That's the job of the developer.

Anyway, in the space of a few days, it needed google-copy-paste fixes for..

1. Installing graphics drivers
2. Installing XGL
3. Installing Beryl
4. Retrieving the shutdown button that Beryl removed it.

And it wasn't just one lot of pasting, some steps in there it required any lots of pasting. Like this.
