There may be other "helpers" in these distros that I have not looked for. perhaps the patches for smart cards on one of those could be bent to work with the GDM in OpenSuse. Hope this helps. -- Todd Denniston Crane Division, Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC Crane) Harnessing the Power of Technology for the Warfighter _______________________________________________ Muscle mailing list Muscle@lists.musclecard.com http://lists.drizzle.com/mailman/listinfo/muscle
