Due to 'paranoid' security selection? Yes it's due to your selection. (i asked the same thing) ;) 2. Could not adduser. Went directly directly from previous screen/option to an error, something like 'unacceptable something in array'. I'll redo it and write the error message down next time. 3. Video setup detected my G400 32meg fine and showed the screen with the 'Is this working?' buttons and timer, but would not startx later. Tried XFdrak, selected 800 w/16 and 32bits. Got screen with X cursor but hung with error "xlib: invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key". Were you root? 4. Using mc, on each exit message is "rm: remove '/root/.mc~/tmp/mc-410'?" or some other number. A) make sure you have a ~/tmp B) strace -o ~/mc.out mc , and send me the ~/mc.out 5. At login, I could not login as root. Because of the adduser problem I used single mode, added a user, even changed root password, but still had to su root to get root. As user I was very limited in what files I could do, much more so than with 6.1. Part of 'paranoid' security level from setup? Yep, no root login in the high security levels CL -- MandrakeSoft http://www.mandrakesoft.com/ --Axalon

But maybe I will have to goo back to the old 3dfx drivers. Thanks Keith
