Thanks for your reply, What happens is "all is fine" with Opera, and Konqueror web browsers but once I start Mozilla, all hell breaks loose... It's like looking at a negative of a picture, whites turn black and the reversal of all colors, I can't describe to you the color changes for I was never aware of how much whole desktop can change. I mean EVERYTHING including the toolbars etc. I may go and install 4.10 and see what happens. 4.10 failed to install when the installation kernel hit the parallel port... Install/Kernel just wedged shut. -- Bill Schoolcraft | Life's journey is not to arrive at the PO Box 210076 | grave safely in a well preserved body, San Francisco,CA 94121 | but rather to skid in sideways, totally http://billschoolcraft.com | spent, yelling "holy shit, what a ride!" _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
