nm256 driver is fairly unstable.
i've checked the code and found that ac97 initialization causes
the problem.  the reason is mysterious and the fix is difficult, since
we have no information about this chipset at all.

anyway, the current cvs version is more stable (but not perfect).
it would be appreciated if you can help debugging, too.
