Hi Jim !

First af all thanks. Unfortunately loading capability module doesn't
work leading to an "Invalid argument" error :-( I found several people
facing the same problem with Ubuntu 7.10 but still no one found a good
solution it seems. Now my system has become completely unstable so I'm
going to install from scratch.

Best regards

Emanuele
