When I first installed PGP 6.5.3 PGPdisk driver caused conflict with keyboard so I disabled it very soon. Now I just reenabled driver and it worked! Kind of mystery. Still remains the question about efficacious compression. About compiling... IMO for a dermatology resident understanding what does this word mean is a significant achievement. I am spending already much time on my Libretto without compiling anything. thank you, Alexandre PS what about motherboard photos? did you find reasons of difference? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 6.5.3 iQA/AwUBORCWWRXehJipATvDEQLXvwCgy3drFt0XXF/j3BRdVzrGme/jaQgAoLfU vJ+gj+5Hb/i0F8l60Im41Umd =akMZ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ************************************************************** http://libretto.basiclink.com - Libretto mailing list http://libretto.basiclink.com/archive - Archives http://www.picante.com/~gtaylor/portable/faq.html - FAQ -------UNSUBSCRIBE------- mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=cmd:unsubscribe --------UNSUBSCRIBE DIGEST------ Use above but add DIGEST to the subject line... **************************************************************
