I've had one of these for over a year, and I use the network & NFS fairly heavily. It's very stable for me (only remaining niggles on this platform for me were sound and xl0 post-resume - but these were completely addressed for me by a couple of commits just pre-4.5-RELEASE). > I do have soft updates turned on on the single / filesystem on this > box. Should I turn them off? They don't cause me any problems (in fact quite the opposite, I think), I've been running them for quite some time. Never caused a single funny for me.. > I would be happy to supply my kernel config file to anyone interested. I'd be happy to provide you with mine, this might be quicker :) > P.S.

Ahh yes, everything in this area used to work fine (including 'shutdown -p'), but broke after Warner made the PCI-routing changes for PCCARD. He can reproduce it with his hardware, and it's not a real big thing anyway (plus he's doing some good work *waves*, don't wanna distract him with trifles).. Just 'halt' the machine, and use the little power key in the top-left corner when it says to "Press Any Key". It'll startup clean.
