This sounds similar to the issue I have with my laptop which has a removable floppy drive. If the floppy drive is not plugged in , then anytime I browse the /mnt directory konqueror locks up while the system works out the floppy is not present. I get around the problem by disabling the floppy in the BIOS. derek -- ---------------------------------- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
