No, and thank you! You'll note that the date shows it is quite recent (day before yesterday). I had contacted Adaptec support and their response was friendly but not immediately helpful. They said (paraphrasing) we are looking into it and we'll get back to you. I may have done some good bringing this issue to their attention. Thanks for finding that for me, and I will try it soon and report back. Thanks! Mark -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
