hello list:

more ?s

i am looking for docu for the ATA support extension. i cannot find
this information at the kallisys website, or in the docu that came with
the pkgs. what do all the settings do, and what do all the little icon
buttons do?

the buttons are (from right to left):

left set of buttons:
the info (i) button - i know what this does
a button with an up arrow that looks like an eject symbol - is this to
mount/unmount the card?
a button that toggles between an x and a check mark - no idea what this
is?

right set of buttons:
a button with a vertical gradient on it - is this to set the card as
the location for new data and packages (default store)?
the envelope - i know what this does.
the X close box - i know what this does.

in the prefs:
should I worry about playing with the cache sizes?
how does ATA sleep affect the performance?

any other tips?

thanks listers!
