<rant> Switching to KDM fixed the problem. Mandrake should have kept *all* of KDM's functionality in MdkKDM along with any enhancements they might want to add. Breaking KDM's configuration just leads to aggravation. If this funcionality *is* in MdkKDM somewhere, it should be made more obvious where to configure it. MdkKDM is a bit prettier in an eye candy sort of way, but that's no excuse for removing funtionality. </rant> > > > Rob -- Thomas K.
