Just to let you gents know, I installed both the perl-bootloader fix and the kernel update. The perl bootloader fix worked well. The kernel update went fine, but vmware still wont pick up my usb devices. TBH, the only one that is really important is the printer and but I got that working by setting up samba. Reported the bootloader result in bugzilla. --Karl -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
