I'm never had any such problems on my MSI K7D Master-L, aka MS-6501, AMD 768 MPX dual Athlon MP 1900+, 1 GB DDR-SDRAM 266 CL2, Radeon 8500 QL system. PS/2 mouse is plugged in but maybe it is due that I have all SCSI? Kernel 2.4.xx (2.4.19-ck, -AA VM, preemption etc) and 2.5.xx (2.5.47-mm1 latest) running fine apart from latest mesa-4-1 branch. Search DRI-devel for ealier post about my system. -Dieter ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Get the new Palm Tungsten T handheld.
