Re: A85: Problems with srcwiz
I don't know why they never fixed this in the Usgard distribution. This
problem has been there for a long time (i noticed it when i first got my
computer about a year ago, but don't remember how i solved it... i may have
run under dos mode). Anyways, the patch worked fine. Thanks for passing it
along.
