Well, it's actually my fault...  I play around a lot with my box and
install and remove a lot of software...  Sometimes these sort of things
happen to me...  I see it as a learning experience...  When it get's over
my head and man pages, google, and all the rest fail to help, I turn to
the linux community for help..

Usually works out..
