But tonight, browsing freshmeat.net, I was trying to load some of the newsforge links, but they opened a blank page, and reported at the bottom of the screen 'stopped', which isn't a message I've seen before so I assumed it was selinux that dis-allowed it. Then later, I discovered that there is a button switch below the led indicating the wireless is on the air that shuts it off. But turning it back on didn't re-establish the link either, I had to do a network restart. An hour later, this message comes in and I attempt to duplicate the breakage so I can report it here, and its working normally now. Murphy is on the prowl again... :( -- Cheers, Gene People having trouble with vz bouncing email to me should add the word 'online' between the 'verizon', and the dot which bypasses vz's stupid bounce rules.
