no, this is broken and evil. kernel-image packages should NOT override someone who chooses to have ECN enabled. the problem is that recent kernel-images have ECN support compiled in. they shouldn't. the correct solution is to NOT compile ECN support into the distribution kernels. that's a choice that should be left up to the individual system admin - if they want it, they can compile a kernel to support it. craig -- craig sanders <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Fabricati Diem, PVNC. -- motto of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch
