I double-dog dare you to file a bugzilla on this <howls with glee> after you mention in passing that you restored the root directory from an FC2 install to FC6. I'm laughing with you Gene, laughing WITH you as my damn KDE desktop keeps winking error messages at me, that I have not figured out yet, whenever I pass the mouse over an icon (!), from restoring an FC5 /root to FC6. My bad, I just HAD to do it all at once, you see. Ring any bells?? I can imagine Rahual chewing his arm off, so he doesn't have to touch the keyboard on that bug report! <howls with anticipatory glee at the notion> <benediction> Go forth and sin no more! <benediction/> Another fellow sinner running as root! THERE! I'm OUT OF THE CLOSET!! Someone just kill me, now. Ric
