Hello Charles,

here I attach the ls -ial resutls:
ls -ial
    316 drwxr-xr-x    1 root     root          512 May  4  2006 .
    260 drwxr-xr-x    1 root     root          512 Apr 20  2006 ..
   2662 -rw-r--r--    1 root     root           96 Jan  1 00:01 defaultbuttons_new.conf
   2662 -rw-r--r--    1 root     root           96 Jan  1 00:01 defaultbuttons_new.conf
   2662 -rw-r--r--    1 root     root           96 Jan  1 00:01 defaultbuttons_new.conf
   2662 -rw-r--r--    1 root     root           96 Jan  1 00:01 defaultbuttons_new.conf
   2662 -rw-r--r--    1 root     root           96 Jan  1 00:01 defaultbuttons_new.conf
   2662 -rw-r--r--    1 root     root           96 Jan  1 00:01 defaultbuttons_new.conf
   2662 -rw-r--r--    1 root     root           96 Jan  1 00:01 defaultbuttons_new.conf

Really strange...
