Just to further complicate things, or maybe not... I mentioned I had multiple machines with this problem. Some running different versions of SuSE. Mainly 11.0, which is where all the info I've provided came from thus far. This machine also has a SuSE-11.2 disk on it. When I do all this using SuSE-11.2 my results look more like ael's. So I think when the cause is found, it will be a single cause. Regards Mark -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
