I can't quite parse what happened exactly. It sounds like you had a bunch of boards that worked fine, got a bunch of new boards, installed the same software, and now the new and old boards don't work. I don't think that's what you meant to say, but that's the way it reads to me. Can you explain further? Also, try 6.0; I have a vague sense you may be having troubles routing interrupts, and the specific problem may have been fixed already. -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/
