Thanks for all the tips. I'm going to download the 2.0.33 kernel from Chris's machine and then apply the patch to upgrade it to pre 34. I'll let you know if I run into any snags. BTW, what kernel does Redhat 5.0 come with? (I'm patiently waiting for 5.1) -- gt6492d at gatech.campus.mci.net Lisa Chiang
