Hi Nick, Thanks for your help (and others).
I'll give the sync thing a go. As for finding information... I don't take your comments the wrong way, I guess I made my google search a bit spicific - I included the model number and got data for my machine that way. The reason I posted all the last info was that someone had fixed the problem for RH6.1 and I thought you guys might be able to just look at it and know what differences I had to allow for between 6.1 X and the X used in RH9. I'll have a look at those sites you recommended but first give Matthew's suggestion a go.
