---- one way of doing that is ln -s /usr/lib/libraw1394.so.11 /usr/lib/libraw1394.so.8 but in doing so, it appears that you are trying to find a pretty old firewire driver and the newer version may not provide what is expected so your mileage may vary. To remove the 'symbolic link' created by the command above... rm /usr/lib/libraw1394.so.8 Craig

You should probably read the ln man page. From the GUI, you can right click on the file, and click on "Make a Link". Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
