Not seen that, and I've run X a lot on that machine. Unfortunately it's now doing a job where I can't easily break in to check OBP version etc. Can anybody comment on the extent to which hardware is set up by OBP initialisation and then never touched by Linux, unlike a PC where the kernel has to do a lot of preliminary bit-twiddling? -- Mark Morgan Lloyd markMLl .AT. telemetry.co .DOT. uk [Opinions above are the author's, not those of his employers or colleagues] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
