This is either a problem with your memory (or chipset), or you are suffering from some problems the 2.1R driver had with the AHA2940UW controller. Do you have a chance to try one of the newer 2.2 SNAPs? The ahc driver there has been updated, so you should be able to isolate the above problems. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
