Howdy,

For a while now , I have been experiencing system freezes due to 
the 2940 controller. The thing is before I upgraded to 2.1-stable
a while ago the system ran fine.

It seems that sometimes under heavy disk i/o activity my 2940 goes
into this reset mode however most of the time I am in X and by
the time I try to get the info if any is displayed on the console
my system is frozen. I have a P100 with 60ns memory chips.

	Tnks,
	Amancio
