After some period of exposure it will drop to the updates repo for general consumption and is considered stable[1]. Also I'm currently tracking this in BZ#204396 were there is also a udev fix if you don't fancy a new kernel yet?. coz I'm running rawhide I havn't tried .2835.fc6 but I can confirm that the udev fix (a one liner) will allow ur current system to see the flash device at start-up. take your pick but don't do both :) [1] stable != bug free :) ...dex --- ___________________________________________________________ All new Yahoo!
