Which is why I can't roll a kernel with what I have installed?? I can't make mrproper on it, it belches on infiniband something or another. I guess I have to dnload the src package. I also guess if I'm going to have to do that, then I'll also WHACK all of the modules cruft out that I recognize, but if I use the existing .config file, it'll barf again? <swears> I have the faint feeling my head is gonna hurt again. :) Ric -- ================================================ My father, Victor Moore (Vic) used to say: "There are two Great Sins in the world... ..the Sin of Ignorance, and the Sin of Stupidity.
