:) Cool! Then, it must be useful ;-) When I have some time, and I fix my harddrive, and I install Linux (and a "trial" version of Panther XXDD, just wanna play around with it now that Mac OSX becomes a little bit more useable with the cool "expose" thingie... how come they don't use virtual desktops!!!!????!!!!!), I might check it out and see if I can work out some stuff of the bloody RTC (I will look at the mplayer source as well) and the mic/recording thing. Who knows, perhaps, I might understand something!! :) Thanks for the info, Michael -- J. Javier Maestro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://rigel.homelinux.com
