I will direct major feedback to the Uniaud-user list (now that I have effectively blocked those pesky spams from the list), but I will give this a go in the morning and let you know. So far, Diane has not had any hangs with her system running 1.9.2, and she is a *heavy* youtube.com user (don't get me started...the stuff she forwards to my brother and me is just unbelievable...). When I saw that she was booted to XP the night before last, I inquired as to whether it was the result of a hang and a failed reboot, but she said, no; she had to boot to XP to view a Flash video (or ecard) which required a newer Flash player, so she was able to do a clean shutdown and restart. This was a very nice change from what we were seeing before. Thanks again for all of your efforts. -- Lewis ------------------------------------------------------------ Lewis G Rosenthal, CNA, CLP, CLE Rosenthal & Rosenthal, LLC Accountants / Network Consultants New York / Northern Virginia www.2rosenthals.com eComStation Consultants www.ecomstation.com Novell Users Int'l www.novell.com/openenterpriseserver Need a managed Wi-Fi hotspot? www.hautspot.com ------------------------------------------------------------
