After that it just goes on to handle all the changed files it sees. There are no changed files! This is the second time this has happened since the crash. There has been a long standing issue with daylight savings: in case you were living in EU, you switched off daylight savings. Therefore LMS

http://downloads-origin.slimdevices.com/ Where did you find that link? Just use the one without the -origin. It's most likely faster, as it's using caching servers near you. -- Michael ___ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com
