Thanks, Iain, this made my upgrade to 2.6.15 go without a hitch. You saved me some time on the Rage3D forums (where I would have also found this information, but I didn't have to go there to look because you passed it on first). If you hadn't mentioned, I would probably have masked the kernel upgrades until a new ATI driver release. Appreciate the heads-up :-) . Holly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
