cat /proc/cpuinfo Is it possible that the old box is so old that it doesn't have the full set of instructions needed to run the latest SuSe correctly? I have come across a funny today where tar files would not extract properly on an old box, P2/233 but the same files worked correctly on a later machine P2/400 with a later model cpu. -- Sincerely etc. Christopher Sawtell NB. This PC runs Linux. If you find a virus apparently from me, it has forged the e-mail headers on someone else's machine. Please do not notify me when this occurs. Thanks.
