Could you give me some details as to what the fix is supposed to do and why it may not work? Also, I'd still be interested to know - what is "events/0"? And why do things run like a 286 when I enable HIGHMEM? I eye some hope here. Must say a life without linux is pretty empty (especially after my girlfriend left... you gotta reach for something; and a new guitar is a little off budget still). :-) Martin -- Using M2, Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/m2/
