Thank you for the acknowledgement. I haven't seen any discussion on the issue but I have sen a lot of people complaining about it. Is this a problem that needs to be addressed by the Linux Kernel Team instead of MandrakeSoft, or have these issues been worked out in the 2.5.x series and the backports are causing problems? Should I bring this stuff to their attention or leave it here? /g _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web!
