Thanks john, I will try out the commands you sent. where can I download the newest build of the XS? I can't find it at xs-dev.laptop.org or dev.laptop.org
We're hoping to get a working version of the XS by the end of this week. Our pilot starts soon (April 13) and we want to get the XS working sooner rather than later. May I suggest bundling XFCE4 w/ the XS. I have installed it on my XS and it eases working w/ wireshark and other aspects of testing. At least for folks like myself that are less than expert w/ the command line. thanks again for your help John Bryan Kathmandu On Sun, 2008-03-02 at 10:52 -0500, John Watlington wrote: > Those RPMs are already patched.
