Try with the 2.4 kernel The 2.6 kernel still has some issues with some USB devices. My HP4100c scanner does not work under 2.6, but is fine with 2.4 You can have both 2.4 and 2.6 kernels installed at the same time, and select which one you want to boot with lilo. Just type kernel in the Software Install GUI for a list of available kernels. The lilo entry will be made automatically. derek -- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
