Well, I cvsup'ed "stable" (just the kernel) and re-compiled the kernel, and everything seems to be going hunky-dory. There were no changes in the vr0 driver (didn't check the rl0 driver), anybody have any idea what the problem was and what fixed it? Was it maybe the buggy Via PCI bridge? -- Eric Lee Green http://members.tripod.com/e_l_green mail: e_l_green@hotmail.com ^^^^^^^ Burdening Microsoft with SPAM!
