Hi, Strangely, this problem seems to have now disappeared. The only thing I can think of that might have had some impact is that I installed Fedora Core 5 to a separate partition, but using the same home directory for my everyday user account. I guess the install of FC5 altered some configuration setting that was causing the problem. Unfortunately I'm not able to identify what that was as I don't have a backup of the old configuration.
I guess the "bug" (if indeed it is a bug) still exists, but the problem for me is solved... Thanks for taking the time to look at this. If I can help any further, please feel free to contact me.
