When I first read your response I thought 'wait a minute - it is a release, so it is stable'. Then I went back and read the info on the web site about 5.1-release. It is a 'release' based on the 'current' 5.0-current. I learned that just becuase it says -release doesn't mean it is based on -stable. Guess I hadn't noticed that before. Anyway, all is working fine now. Thanks. -- Chip
