----- Original Message ---- From: Jay Leafey <jay.leafey at mindless.com> You might look look at Dell's linux-precision list archives (http://lists.us.dell.com/pipermail/linux-precision/), this subject came up in the last couple of weeks after the Red Hat 4.4 upgrade. There were some pointers there that might help. ------------------------------------ Thanks. I was a bit sceptical at first, as the mailing list is for Dell Precision rather than Dimension, but I found the solution to the problem there in the end. In case anyone else is having the same issue, I downloaded a driver from here: <http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&cs=555&l=en&s=biz&releaseid=R109066&SystemID=LATITUDE%20PRECISION%20690&os=LIN4&osl=en&deviceid=8907&devlib=0&typecnt=1&vercnt=1&formatcnt=1&libid=3&fileid=141621> According to the instructions, this was an issue with 4.1 that was solved in 4.2. Evidently, it then got accidentally removed at a later date. Bye, Joe
