If the T22 uses the same S3 Chip (Savage-MX) this is a problem in the XFree Driver present at least up to 4.0.3 (Running 4.1 for a couple of days and havent had it again) StarOffice does trigger it reliably in the installer. You can at least fix the StarOffice stuff by setting the Environment var export SAL_DO_NOT_USE_INVERT50=true into your .bashrc Flo -- Florian Lohoff [EMAIL PROTECTED] +49-5201-669912 Nine nineth on september the 9th Welcome to the new billenium
