Oops! I meant the "mtx-changer" script! Sorry. Also, if you can, build the mtx binary yourself, from the source at <http://sourceforge.net/projects/mtx/> or its home page at <http://mtx.opensource-sw.org/> (which is busted at the moment), that may be worth a try. I know I'm paranoid, but sometimes just removing any "enhancements" that the packaging droids have committed on an unsuspecting piece of software can make problems go away, often with quite astonishing improvements!
