Thanks for that! I just did an update on a couple of systems and a complete install on another this weekend. Yep, my mods went bye-bye and I've since converted to your way of thinking. I created a "51-joystick-we7u.rules" file on each system with only two lines in it. There was already a file in there starting with "51-", but it doesn't matter as long as I don't have a name clash. -- Curt, WE7U: <www.eskimo.com/~archer/> XASTIR: <www.xastir.org> "Lotto: A tax on people who are bad at math." -- unknown "Windows: Microsoft's tax on computer illiterates." -- WE7U The world DOES revolve around me: I picked the coordinate system! _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
