I think it will be | ok if it laggs i386 by a few days though in getting frozen and into | testing. Let's make sure it's 100% there. And make sure that it works | for someone else besides just you. :-) isn't this the job of the beta release to see, if it works for other peoples also? I guess the basic architecture problems are already solved before beta1. So all problems should be releated to special harware or special environments. Bye Thorsten
