That would be really nice.
Though I think that the most cool thing about Arachne is its managing
all internas via html-pages, it is doing no good to Insight, as it is so
slow then.

BTW I got my PCMCIA problem fixed. It was due to the driver which kept
assigning an odd IRQ to COM 3 (remember: 5) no matter what I did. Though
MSD listed this IRQ as available neither Arachne nor Bobcat could handle
this. So what solved the problem was excluding IRQ 5 from usage by the
card driver. After doing so, the driver assigned IRQ 9 and all of a
sudden it worked.
Funny again, as MSD showed IRQ 9 as "redirected IRQ 2" whatever that
means. But not to worry, the modem is now fully recognized.

Nice time to u all,
Iannis
