Mind you, I'm generally fairly good at breaking things; maybe I happened to get lucky (though I like to think that during the last 13 months of exposure to FreeBSD, maybe I've learned enough to be able to configure a system more nearly appropriately with its intended use than I did at first). And "pau-amma" is my desktop, which may well account for some of this. cheers, david -- David Wolfskill UNIX System Administrator dhw@whistle.com voice: (650) 577-7158 pager: (650) 371-4621 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
