Hi

Sorry for making a lot of noise lately. After I restarted my notebook,
I saw that the wireless adapter is turned on.

But when I login to Gnome, I see nothing. It freezes.

I also added an option to

XFree86Config-4 (is this the right filename) to disable tapping:

Option "MaxTapTime" "0"

under the synaptics.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Behrang S.
