This _may_ be a chipset problem. I noticed that you have a K6 in there, maybe with a chipset from ALi ? I've never tried a Fritz!PCI card in a box with an ALi chipset. The reason I say that is that I recently wrote a (Linux) driver for a PCI card which only worked correctly in boxes with Intel BX or 815E chipsets. In boxes with AMD or ALi chipsets it did not work reliably (it tended to hang the PCI bus). Anyway, does the box hang so hard that you can't get into DDB and generate a crash dump ? That's probably the only way to find out what's happening. -- Gary Jennejohn garyj@jennejohn.org gj@freebsd.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isdn" in the body of the message
