make sure that XF86Config is loading the dri module and that

now. I did have to restart X to get this to work, however...
Thanks for your help!!

BTW what does [ sed -e "s/^\([^,]*\).*$/\1/" ] accomplish? I'm just
grooving on one liners lately and am curious. It seems like -
awk -F : '{print $5}' /etc/passwd is all you need to spit out the full
names.
Not quite the same thing:
$ awk -F : '/karsten/ {print $5}' /etc/passwd

gnupg if i were you.

I have ash installed also, but my /bin/sh --> bash. So I don't think that
