Okay... but I don't think that helps Bruce any. Again, his problem was that the drivers his card were experimental. Not "restricted", but experimental.

It might have been so new that you had to grab sources from a CVS repository or some such thing. -- Ben _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
