yeah i am using the new kernel i found the problem theres a post on here that tells u how to get it working but its written wrong and that was my problem in the other post u have to enable hidden files to get to the usr folder so all works now
Got another question if u can help me for some reason i cant restart i can shut down but not restart it powers down and logs me out but it hangs w/ a black screen it has to be something with iDeneb and i've tried the shutdown pkg on the install cd i am on voodoo beta 2 but thats not the problem cause i was using it with kalyway and had no problems and i've also tried other kernels with the same luck if ya could help that would be great
Thanks,
Nic
