Very few people here will be upset that you want others to do the grubby integration work. My wife certainly doesn't. And that's *OK*. Do you complain and whine because the Honda Civic only has a 1.8L 140HP motor? No, you rip it out and install a JDM H22 with high performance exhaust manifold, intake, fuel rail, power steering pump, racing gear shift, transmission cooler, intercooled turbocharger, nitrous, etc. IOW, *you* make the car run like *you* want it to run. Same with Linux. Stick with stock, or get your fingernails dirty and scrape your knuckles. - -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA Give a man a fish, and he eats for a day.
