And try asking for a "DE15" at a distributor whose stock database has only "DB9", "DB15", and DB25. I think I accidentally procured a DA15 when what I asked for was a DE15, and the helpful assistant probably "corrected" my "mistake" and figured I obviously wanted a "DB15". Next time I went there I tried "VGA connector", and that worked. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
