The above error indicates that the card is not configured for the right interrupt. I don't know why the system has frozen; there are a couple of possible reasons for that; - there might be a bug in the kernel that is tickled by your config - the card might have generated another (wrong) interrupt and the system has not handled it well. However, you shouldn't need the PAO patches at all for your setup. -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@gsoft.com.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@gsoft.com.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and (GSM mobile) 0411-222-496 [[ ]] realtime instrument control.
