It only happens sporadically (once in 10 times?) depending on what happend to my machine before. Never when I just rebooted, but often when I have used netscape, for example. It never happens when I use an older kernel. -- ______________________________________________________________________ Peter Mutsaers | Abcoude (Utrecht), | "Quod licet bovis, plm@xs4all.nl | the Netherlands | non licet Jovi."
