When I did so (both), Nvidia wouldn't start, even after remerging it. Back with 'module-init-tools' -- now in 'package.unmask' -- all is well. Does anyone know what's going on ? -- did I miss a 'news' item ? -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT `-O----------O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca
