Will do. I'll ask Stew if he has had a chance to roll the mdk rpm yet.
Since I'm 'beta testing' I don't want to diverge to strongly from the
distro's settings. But, I also want to run MOL w/o crashing my entire
machine.
Incidentally, when I went out to lunch, I left my machine running w/ MOL
and had top running on an ssh'd connection - I've attached a txt file
with all processes > 0.0 CPU usage - btw, when I came back, it was
around 2:30pm and the last time reported by top was 12:54pm.
