Hi Francis

Cool, that makes sense. My user id is jc2k. Thanks for your response!

On a side note, how long does it normally take to get beta approval
(so I can set up Conduit/SynCE PPA's)? I get quite a lot of users
needing help with their WM5 devices (4 at once last night, and 3 were
gutsy users) and it would be so much easier for them if I could talk
them through adding a repository and doing an apt-get install instead
of compiling about 10 different packages!

Thanks
John
