If so, send > me a private mail .. would be cool;) I am not at all comfortable with 4.0.4 on the up-stream side. I have it installed on my personal Windows7 system (previously running 3.2.12 with an Ubuntu client and I a seeing the keyboard lock-ups there. I ma also having LOT of crashes of the VM. I just get a Win7 popup telling my that the VM has unexpectedly exited and do I want to report it to Microsoft. After the stability of the v3 B, this is very disappointing. I'll admit to being very nervous about 4.0.4. -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
