The one and only... I had hoped it did. Poking around the archives showed a few cases with strong similarities, but I really think the majority are dodgy hardware. I wouldn't be surprised if my own Multia problems were hardware as well. At least in regards to the spontaneous reboots. As for the dec_axppci_33 messages, booting verbose does in fact show the detection of a bogus phantom device for each pin 30 message. I don't think this is flaky hardware as much as it is a Multia-specific quirk. It happens on both of mine, and I remember seeing a message from Mike Smith that it happens on his too. (Sorry, Mike, if I'm misremembering) - Bruce PS: I'll post a dmesg with the bogus probe info as soon as I get my box back in shape. ______________________ Bruce M.
