last time I used parallel-fetch (a while ago) it looked different to Dale's output though - I don't remember seeing the wget style completion: 79% [+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++===========> ] but rather I see the message (just tried it out now) Downloading 'jdk-6u4-dlj-linux-i586.bin'... see /var/log/emerge-fetch.log for details. hmm... -- Iain Buchanan <iaindb at netspace dot net dot au> I tell ya, I was an ugly kid.
