I did not suggest that. It all depends on the kind of use you put your computer to.
Agreed. Does raise the question though, where all the statically linked programs from /sbin have gone. The -s- in /sbin is for "static" for a good reason: A system admin in distress would be very pleased to have his emergency programs be statically linked and available from /sbin. It seems distibutors have been leaving this path since ages. Anyone knows which o.s. holds this old SVR4 adagium? Linux does not, Solaris does a bit, UnixWare not that I know off, AIX not that I know off. Pity... Koos Pol ---------------------------------------------------------------------- S.C.
