I'll post my specs when I get in, but I'm shocked to see that Mozilla doesn't have much love for our market. I assumed that since it was FOSS that it would give more love to Linux, but I guess Windows has more pull than I thought. That's what I get for ASSuming things. Reid, I look forward to "nightly" adventures... so I'll look into the latest beta build too. Oh and to confirm, it probably is my nVidia car. Ever since I've been running this system and learning about Linux (9+ months), there has ALWAYS been a common denominator... and that's my graphics card (nVidia GeForce 8600 GT). If I didn't need 3D support A LOT of my issues would have gone away. Amazing how troublesome this awesome little graphics card has become to FOSS users. -- Marc F. www.fergytech.com Registered Linux User: #410978 "When life gives me lemons...
