Waiting is not my strong suit, and 4 minutes would drive me crazy :) </PRE> </BLOCKQUOTE>     agreed, sometimes it is quicker to start/stop.  however, session saving never seems to work well, and re-setting window positions/opening apps/etc. takes more time (and interaction) than waiting for hibernation to thaw, during which i can tune my guitar ;) thanks for the help, w <BLOCKQUOTE TYPE=CITE> <PRE> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - <A HREF="http://enigmail.mozdev.org">http://enigmail.mozdev.org</A> iEYEARECAAYFAkpKcmYACgkQwRXgH3rKGfN7owCfX3k3rBv0tWi/v1k+Mf80x7FC OWwAn19Px/o+DmfhZTguOz6D5yyt988E =BYFT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- </PRE> </BLOCKQUOTE> </BODY> </HTML>
