Hi Eberhard Roloff!

That is good news!

I am curious.  What Kernel number (do a "uname -r" as shown below):
------------------------------------------------
tod at tod-desktop:~$ uname -a
Linux tod-desktop 2.6.15-26-386 #1 PREEMPT Thu Aug 3 02:52:00 UTC 2006
i686 GNU/Linux
tod at tod-desktop:~$
-----------------------------------------------

Thanks!!

Tod
