To answer myself i have sorted it - not _exactly_sure what the issue was but i decided to rebuild my fresh kernel to see if i missed anything out - Did not alter anything but this one seems to work a treat. Perhaps the build messed up somewhere. Note to self - check the obvious before posting! thanks Tom
