I think I've solved it. Following your hint, I checked the bios settings, and there was one for power-up display. It was set to Auto, and apparently Auto meant that it would display the one that it found first. The optional setting was for Both. I have changed it, and I think all is now well. Fn F5 still doesn't work, but that is of no great consequence. Thanks for the help Anne -- Registered Linux User No.293302 (http://counter.li.org/) Mandriva hints & tips: http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
