Filtering by taxonomy

So i've been banging my head against this problem, and I just can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I went so far as to do a fresh install to see if there was some conflict between different modules.

Ok so I'm trying to setup some basic categories and terms so I can cross categorize lots of different content type. For example, let say I have a content type called Board Events. I want to allow a user to create a new event and then be able to categorize for different sub-comittees on the board. SOO i went and created a Category called Board and underneath that I created two sub-committees: Audit Committee and Technology Committee. My final goal is to set various views for each committee that pull in all sorts of content based on the category. But when I try and filter utilizing the Taxonomy Super Select Ultra module nothing shows up. Here are the steps I took with a complete fresh install hopefully someone can help figure out where I'm going wrong:

  1. Install fresh copy of Drupal 5 (im stuck doing this in drupal 5)
  2. Copy over the following stable releases
    • adminrole
    • admin_menu
    • cck
    • cck_taxonomy_ssu
    • views
  3. I enabled first adminrole
  4. Then I enabled rest of the modules
  5. Then I ran update.php
  6. Then I went to the categories section and created the category
    • Board
  7. Then I created two sub terms
    • Audit Committee
    • Technology Committee
  8. Then I created a CC type, Board Events and added one field:
    • Taxonomy vocabulary (super select ultra)
  9. Then I clicked on Create new content and created three test entries
    • Filled in title and body, then checked the Audit Committee check box for two entries and checked the Technology Committee for the other entry
  10. Then I clicked on Administer > Content Managemnet > Content
  11. Under the filter section I clicked the radio category, and selected Audit Category

I would've expected that the two events would've shown up that I categorized as Audit Committee ... any thoughts I what I'm missing?

Sorry for the long post ... Mark
