Glad its going so well for you. I'm feeling mighty abused here, right about
now. I've at least a kazillion problems. Let me list'em:

1. Zip drive - won't work. Change dev using a right click, set it from
/mnt/zip to the usual /dev/hdd4 and its fine. Until I reboot. Then its the
same way again. Checked fstab of course - it shows /dev/hdd4!

2. XawTV has no sound. Picture perfect.

3. XawTV icon (from Hell) is still on my desktop. Squatters rights, I guess. U
can delete the dickens out of it, each restart brings it back. Got to be some
kind of dynamic link.

4. Lost all other sounds. Running sndconfig as root finds the card, identifies
it correctly, then gives a bunch of error messages. Won't go further.

5. Can use Plextor SCSI CD-RW, but can't burn anything. SCSI system/driver
can't be found. (this is funny!) As root, from a shell, run "cdrecord
-scanbus" which normally brings up your position in the SCSI chain/lun and
whatever device you are using. Mine says. "run cdrecord -scanbus as root". ;-)

Lots of problems as u can see. I'm going to wipe /home and reinstall. Wish me
luck...Methinks I'll need it.

PS Oddly enough, things that are usually tough r easy. New Nvidia drivers
installed perfectly for great 3D acceleration. Networking, except for my 'Nix
box showing up in Network Neighborhood, is good.

Later guy...
