I have a similar system - 2.4.3 kernel, 300 MHz GX1 system and have few
problems. The following USB devices work fairly well : USB Keyboard,
mouse, se401 web cam, pegasus ethernet, CD R/W, hub. I get quite a few
"pegasus.c: intr status -84" errors in my syslog, but it seems to
recover OK. On occasion the system fails to recognize any of my devices
on boot requiring me to unplug/replug the hub.
I am concerned about the pegasus -84 errors in the syslog though. I've
had some reports that interrupts are disabled for a period of time
during the recovery from this error. Does anyone know if this is
correct?
