There isn't a clear way to know when it would be a wise time to reboot and when it would simply waste time - the problem is only theoretical. In practice, installing a new kernel version is sufficient reason to reboot - more often than that is, IMHO, unlikely to provide any demonstrable difference. Personally, I don't think it's necessary to reboot more than once or twice a year. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
