    "What you're doing is akin to when handicapped people get irate about being called handicapped."

    Try again...

    You quite clearly implied that homosexuals have an identity crisis. This is completely baseless and is *not* the same as calling a handicapped person handicapped.

    He didn't adopt it to any agenda. Please show where in his article he suggested that the X-Men promoted the need for gay rights?

    He quite clearly said, however, that the movie is an allegory about prejudice and discrimination against all outsiders.

    Just because a movie might be an allegory for homosexuality does not mean it's only directed at 2 to 10 percent of the population.

    BTW, please refrain from such idiotic remarks implying homosexuals have sexual identity problems. I have no such problem.

    Nice try...

    The amount of prejudice that a geek experiences, because they are a geek, is nothing compared to the prejudice that a homosexual, black, or jew experiences because of that particular characteristic.

    It seems to me that they're not trying to get around those firewalls, but, rather, not trying to set off any alarms with their probes of those firewalls. There is a *big* difference. Adam

    Have you passed your XFree86.0.log file onto the appropriate people for help?

    There is only one troll here, and it'd be the one making claims about kernel panics but unwilling to go into *any* amount of detail... (In case you can't understand, that makes you the troll).

    DRI is not that mysterious... Direct Rendering Infrastructure (the architecture for OpenGL/Mesa support).

    No offense, but both my AIW 128 and Xpert 2000 worked beautifully right from the start with 4.0. Adam
