There has been one report that it did not help, all the other feedback so far has been that it helped. The one system it was reported to not work on was a DS10, I'm not sure yet if it had a graphical console or serial console. If you upgrade an Alpha to -current and continue to have problems can you let me know please? The one alpha machine I have access to uses a serial console (and is 3k miles away...) but I'll do what I can to work out what else could be wrong. -- Ken Smith - From there to here, from here to | kensmith@cse.buffalo.edu there, funny things are everywhere. | - Theodore Geisel |
