That's true, but, the next line in /etc/rc :
"[ -f /lib/aurora/functions -a -f /etc/aurora/Monitor ] &&
/etc/aurora/Monitor startable && aurora=1"
will never yield aurora=1 since /etc/aurora/Monitor is of size 0 and on
my system even absent. Or is this script
called Monitor created when you enable aurora in the Mandrake control
center. Anyway, sth. is wrong as I had the
same pb. as the "HeadTechnician".
