Thanks Acked-by: Russell King Please note that I'm rather busy at the moment dealing with a complete change in networking here (I've not read much in the way of email over the last couple of days). Also note that my Internet connection is highly unstable and experiencing a large amount of packet loss due to this wonderful thing called "FTTC"... which when working properly only gives me around 5Mbps.
