Thanks, I tried the VO+SHIFt+M and no dice when I had Adium and Syrinx running at login but now, for no reason apparent to me, it works without anything other than VO running at login. It just gets curiouser and curiouser as we wander through the looking glass.
Thanks again, you definitely saved some of my time that would have been spent assuming that this keystroke was also broken. Now to see if Adium is broken or if removing it from start at login corrected its issues. cdh On Dec 9, 2009, at 9:05 AM, Thuy wrote: > Hi Chris.
