Yup, and so I did. Actually I'm not far from having a complete mirror for ftp.redhat.com... I'm too scared from my past experience to try that again. I had to turn off optimization when I used gcc-2.8.1, because even a humble '-O' would lead to a 'FATAL ERROR 6' on my AMD K5. None of the messages in that thread ("Where do you want to go tomorrow?") had any picture attachments - except for X-Faces. X-Faces were giving me error messages because of some legacy (pre-20) X-Face configuration - I removed the stuff from my config file and now I can see X-Faces again. 8) -- Thanks for your hint, Marc <URL:http://www.saar.de/bong/signatur.html> "640K ought to be enough for anybody." - Bill Gates, 1981
