I'm just using the freeware version of the Labtam and Microimage software. I'll give your suggestion a try!
>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 08/23/04 07:46PM >>> Hello from Gregg C Levine Mark, that was me. And your interpretation of my instructions are indeed correct. Richard if this works, I'd appreciate getting an e-mail. No comment regarding the GNOME desktop however. I looked at the Labtam product, as well as one other. Way too expensive for my needs. Also too difficult to setup. ------------------- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------ "The Force will be with you...Always."
