I shudder to think that you really "did a direct copy" from one machine and are running the same kernel on a new machine with a different architecture. Try building a 2.4.17 or 2.4.19-pre2-ac2 kernel for this and see if the problem goes away. When you go to a bright shiney new machine, with a very recent chipset, going to a very recent kernel is highly recommended. I don't promise that this is fixed, but at least a kernel which fits your hardware will give you a fighting chance. I bet you're still running your old config files as well, doing whatever hardware setup was a good idea for the old machine... -- -bill davidsen ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) "The secret to procrastination is to put things off until the last possible moment - but no longer" -me -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
