Thanks Seb. I'll take a look, thats debian 7.7 I guess? I have 7.8, in amd64 flavor, all 3 iso's about 40% downloaded now. What kernel is in this "precise"? Maybe I can dl & build the rtai patched kernel? It sure would remove a boatload of confusion here if debian would use either names in alphabetical order, or advancing version numbers to track this stuff. Thanks again Seb. While thats finishing, I'll go work on the blanket chest. I am having to assume there is a typu or two in the 'sploded drawings as I am going to have to make the bottom panel a different size from whats in the magazine by nearly an inch. And I am glad I caught that before that plywood panel ever got within 10 feet of the table saw. Clearly, I have too many hobbies. :) Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
