I don't believe personal config files are modified during installs/upgrades, but often the *format* of said configuration files can change. The gnome files in Slink and the gnome files in Potato are separated by almost a years worth of development. It would not be unheared of for the format of the configuration files to have changed and Gnome to have been confused. later, joseph -- the "LaterDude" ICQ: 52640402 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.ice-works.com/personal/LaterDude/ All opinions expressed are my own and not necessarily those of my employer unless otherwise noted.
