Hi Hiroki.

Another update:  Since removing the directory above I have been having
system stability problems.  My system has been locking up requiring a
hard reboot.  I suspect the change with the dev directory might be the
culprit, because my system was up for several months before this.
Another possibility could be the firefox plugin for acroread is
causing problems.  I noticed that the browser plugin no longer works
since the upgrade.  I've just now removed the plugin hoping that it
will fix the problem.  Has anyone else mention a problem to you?  Do
you have any more suggestions?

Thanks,

Joey
