AFAIK its never been run here.  And ATM wlan0 has started working, so I 
believe I'll let this puppy continue an un-interrupted nap until such

Is there a manpage (thats a stupid question obviously, but to stay in 
character I had to ask), or was that like the decal I saw on the 
tailgate of a late model dodge pickup dressed up with a daytona style 
wing on the back of the box, the decal saying "Attitude sold 
separately"?  The driver obviously had one, it was already showing signs 
of participation in contact sports.
