Neils's computers, you are *not* supposed to eavesdrop on emails he gets. Understood? :- I have got a small problem with it myself. hald isn't starting. Haven't had time to really investigate it. Next update world will probably correct it anyway.

OK, I'll admit this new information plugdev:x:413:root,james makes it work again, but, for how long? Call me doubting_thomas, but, it's been round and round and round again with dbus/hal/ivman. I surely hope it's stable now, for good. AFAIK, that infernal trio will be dropped in KDE 4 - at least in the current form. I don't want to post the relevant discussion in KDE here because most subscribers won't be interested in it. For those who actually are, go to lists.kde.org, select kde-devel and search for the subject containing FreeDCE. Some hilarious posts in November/December last year. Enjoy. ;-) Uwe -- Unix is sexy: who | grep -i blonde | date cd ~; unzip; touch; strip; finger mount; gasp; yes; uptime; umount sleep -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
