I was never able to keep an ssh connection alive more than 30-40 min with the driver that is in head. I think you should check it into head now so people setting up new BBs get the benefit. As discussed off list there is still room for improvement, but I think that can be better handled if this much more stable driver goes into the tree sooner rather than later. It will allow for more testing and feedback to assist with the next round of improvements. This thing is running so well now that I am about to put a web server on the box and give it a static IP address. Once we have USB I think the BB will become my primary mail and web server......Think of the power I will save! -Brett -- wynkoop@wynn.com http://prd4.wynn.com/wynkoop/pgp-keys.txt 917-642-6924 718-717-5435
