For other distros, go to their site and look for the appropriate list. You will probably need to subscribe to the list. As Ryan said, be more specific. If you know where to look, you might disable arts. I had a sound problem and arts was the culprit. You should be able to turn it off or set it to disable itself after 1 second. This is not to say arts is your problem. It was mine. RedHat9 and Mandrake10 both had conflicts with arts and sound drivers. > _______________________________________________ > gnome-list mailing list > gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx > http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list -- My nose makes its own bubblegum -- mark@xxxxxxxxxx www.noneinc.us _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
