In a reply earlier this week Steve Critchfield said the same as I will now. The first thing I do when I install a new system is download and configure a plain vanilla kernel from kernel.org. Distributions are like ready to wear tailors, they try and make something that fits everybody so by definition it will fit nobody exactly. RH, Mandrake et al create kernels that they think will give the most appropriate results in a normal usage system. * is far from a normal usage system. -- Dave Cotton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
