Does anyone know what is causing this bug & what to do about it when it has happened?
I have noticed on the alt.os.linux.mandrake newsgroup someone else has the same problem: Xref: news.demon.co.uk alt.os.linux.mandrake:298863 Path: news.demon.co.uk!demon!kibo.news.demon.net!demon!newsfeed00.sul.t-online.de! t-online.de!nntp-relay.ihug.net!newsfeeds.ihug.co.nz!ihug.co.nz!newsfeed01.t snz.net!news02.tsnz.net!not-for-mail Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> From: Nick Massey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.0) Gecko/20020510 X-Accept-Language: en-us, en MIME-Version: 1.0 Newsgroups: alt.os.linux.mandrake Subject: help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
