Is there something I can do? Can't speak from personal experience, but have seen a reference to someone trying it successfully. They were however using either 2.2.8R or 3.0R, both of which have considerably more uptodate linuxulators than 2.1.7. I would suggest that an upgrade to 2.2.8 would be in order (2.2.8 is currently the "stable" release - 3.0R is still for early adopters). -- Andrew I MacIntyre "These thoughts are mine alone..."
