If I didn't give the version, it's because I use the regular
ftp/package version for FreeBSD-8.1, so 3.2.6 (if I remember well)

I didn't look at alternatives versions (portdowngrade&Co.).
Indeed, it may help me...

I think I'm only declaring IDE devs.
But I'll have a look at your number-of-adaptater theory, once I'll
be at my office.


Thanks for your help
