Comment 2 for bug 785474

Daniel,

Thank you for your reply...

I did what you asked and it works (now!!!?). I got output(s) as you
described.

Then I did it again (the original way I did it before) and it still
works!!!?

I'm not too sure what happened between the first time and this time.

Maybe I should reformat, install Natty, and try the "system test" again.
Do you want me to do that?

I'll wait until I hear from you "one way or another"

Thanks for the help.

Stephen
