So it does not work on Sarge, you can test it. Ubuntu 5.10 and Sarge are deeply different we cannot assume that something working on Ubuntu has to work on Sarge. I never planed to support Ubuntu and i still do not plan to support it. BTW, if i have to justify each lines of code, i stop my developments. I work on OOD on my free time, i do not want to spend then hours in email to justify everything. > > Regards, > Erich > > >
