Hummmmm...very interesting. Thanks for the info. I searched fedora
bugzilla and didn't see anything listed. If it happened to you with a
clean install
and me with an upgrade, looks like a definite code defect somewhere.
I'll open a fedora bug also. Might be something related to the distribution.
It's fairly easy to reproduce. Must not be alot of EPSON R300's running FC5.
