Hmm..., could you please try the new driver at D-Link, it addresses "known Tx timed out issues." in version 1.05c as of 2002/10/14 for DFE-580TX (the sundance driver). http://tsd.dlink.com.tw/ You should report this as a bug at https://qa.mandrakesoft.com/ Chears. -- Regards // Oden Eriksson - Deserve-IT Networks http://d-srv.com Check the "Modules For Apache2" status page at: http://d-srv.com/modules_for_apache2.html
