IIRC, as of 2.6.7 there was a change in the way the kernel handled something relating to getting information from the drive - k3b had trouble with this, but I think may be fixed in the latest version. Don't know about others, or what's been fixed now and what hasn't yet. Try it and find out - you can always go back down to 2.6.6. ;^) NRH -- "Today's robots are very primitive, capable of understanding only a few simple instructions such as 'go left', 'go right', and 'build car'." - John Sladek
