I am a bit puzzled by kmix's behaviour... sometimes, when resuming the suspended Toshiba notebook the Default (saved) values will be put in place, and sometimes not. I cannot seem to identify what that is different might be happening upon suspend or resume that might be causing this so any idea will be entertained. Thanks. :-) -- ...CH SuSE On A Toshi Is All U Need 2 Drive U Crazy. Linux user# 313696 Linux box# 199365
