Now, David. This "fix" addresses a very real problem of kernel bloat. A very quick search of the source tree will establish that it does not break anything. It is NOT any change in functionality (or code, for that matter) in your default case. IMHO, the "risk" of adding this to 2.1 is much lower than the risk of Jordan's "addressing" the inability to sysconfig /var. (Neither of which would worry me) Is there a double standard? ---- Richard Wackerbarth rkw@dataplex.net
