ROFLMAO.  I didn't know that.  I thought maybe something new was coming 
up for KDE 4 or something.  I lost my emails from the list about that 
time so I missed the scared nurse.  I did notice dar was still there 
tho.  Thing is, how you unpack that from say a Gentoo boot CD?  It's not 
exactly a tar file.  Seems you have to have dar/kdar to unpack the thing 
which would be useless for a system back-up.

I just wish I could have got that mondo-rescue thing to working.  It 
seems perfect for a system back-up.
