The interface oh well.. but what I dislike about etc-update (and it's replacements afaik) is this tendency to want to restore files to their original state.. One keypress to many, one moment of not paying enough attention an whee.. gone is fstab, XF86Org or some other important file.. I really don't understand why the system doesn't have blabla.conf.dist files to fool around with and leave it up to the administator to check of changes and the like.. Yes I've been burned a few times.. and no I didn't like it.. Gerhard -- Ithaka photography, http://ithaka.mine.nu/ -- [email protected] mailing list
