Even after bdflush died and I needed to bounce the machine, I just about had to beat the developers off the machine with a stick. :-) Eric Sandeen suggested turning off DMAPI support, so I'm going to give that a try first. I'll go ahead and grab a copy of your patch, and give it a try if the problem still resurfaces. --=20 Nathan Poznick PGP Key: http://drunkmonkey.org/pgpkey.txt Boss: You forgot to assign the result of your map!
