Well it /wasn't/ when I sent that message. But, a look at Xorg.0.log showed me that the ati driver (6.11.0) had an ABI mismatch with the server version. A recompile of that driver and I'm up now. Except for the ginormous font size I have now I'm back to work. Any idea on how to fix my fonts now? I had this problem with this driver once before and couldn't find an answer. -- Frustra laborant quotquot se calculationibus fatigant pro inventione quadraturae circuli Mark Haney Sr. Systems Administrator ERC Broadband (828) 350-2415 Call (866) ERC-7110 for after hours support
