  Relax?  Sounds like something that unemployed people do : \

 Sorry for my poor english : )
 It means sorry, too many docs to read

Yeah...  I end up bookmarking most of 'em and then never reading 'em
anyways...  I admit to being a bad person.

 oh.. english drive me crazy

Not a long trip, eh?  ; )

English is one of the most un-intuitive languages there is, with
possible exception to Spanish...  Yeah, Latin is probably the source
of all linguistic evil.  Anglo-Saxon/West Germanic was just fine until
those darn Roman pinheads came along... ~:(

 Don't know if it relates to your case but I had a
 similar problem until I realized the device was

 kernel config it was smooth sailing.

No, mine's a vfat.  Here's a sample of what my /etc/fstab reads now:

localhost bin # cat /etc/fstab
/dev/hda1/boot   ext2 defaults
 1 2
/dev/hda2noneswapsw   
 0 0
/dev/hda3/   ext3 defaults
0 1
none/procproc defaults
0 0
none/dev/shm  tmpfs  defaults 
0 0
/dev/sda1/mnt/sda1 vfat noauto,async,user,exec  0 0

(note: I edited the output to get it to line up - before hand it was
rather ugly.  Yeah, that slow of a Saturday...)

If I ever meet the guy who made the cat command, I'm gonna kiss him. 
If I ever find the guy who made the less command, I'll do the same. 
One of my new favourite toys is cat file | less.  You've probably
noticed I use it a lot.  I only discovered it about 2 weeks ago, so
there comes my excitement.

Ha. You can achieve the same by running `less file` same with grep. ;)

I assume the problem regarding mounting usb drives has been solved?

Didn't know that, either.  bash is so darn cool...  makes DOS look so
bad.  Amazing people could use DOS.

Yes, it has.  I'm very happy about it.  In celebration I made KDE look
exactly like Windows 95 to tick off all the windoze zombies I know. 
They're still not happy about KIOSlaves, and whenever I change a theme
or behaviour it deepens the wound in their misplaced pride : )

Now I can get down and dirty with Apache2 and PHP so I can build my
big product.  I would tell, but it's confidential - Firestorm
Development Group International only.  I can say that it will be
Gentoo based, and totally open-source.  It's just closed-source during
the development phase to maintain an element of surprise on the
unsuspecting win32 syncophants.  Consider this your warning: my next
string of problems will be related to Apache2, PHP, php_mhash and
php_mcrypt, MySQL, and such things.

In the mean time, since I'm not brave enough to open a whole new
thread for something as trivial as this...

OpenOffice just released OpenOffice.org v2.0.2  Is this already in the
software listings, or is it confined to ~x86, and people like me using
-x86 can't get it yet?  I would change, but I'm not sure what to
expect with ~x86.

BTW: Thanks for your help!  I am taking in as much of this info as I
can* - don't expect to see the same question twice from me.

[*] I do have limits.  Most people tell me they're higher than your
average Joe, but I do have limits.
