Well, being a windows-weenie, i first rebooted to see if anything changed. Nada.


Consider that a lesson then. In Linux you rarely have to reboot. I just checked the uptime on one of my home systems:
1:15pm up 248 days 3:09, 2 users, load average: 1.07, 0.99, 0.91

That's over 35 weeks of uptime and the last reboot was due to a UPS battery replacement.
