Linux is just a fad...Ultrix will live forever! My DECstation 5000/120 with PMAG-AA framebuffer doesn't have any screen flicker like this Linux toy! You're, of course, right that there were lots of annoying differences. There are annoying differences between the distributions right now as well. Which VT X is running is probably the least irritating. Plus, how many different distros does any one person regularly run? Between work and home, I'm running RHEL and Fedora. I roll my eyes when I run an LVM command on the RHEL4 boxes that isn't there, but its not a big deal. People adapt, just like when I had to deal with Tru64, Solaris, and Linux. "ps" is a harsh mistress when it comes to flags. Brian -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
