There is a problem with some ide controllers with the new ide code,
which happens to be in the 2.2.18 kernels for Mandrake (I susupect thay
have backported the drivers from 2.4.0-test series).
I resolved this problem by compiling a new kernel for our P75 box, from
vanilla (ie direct from linus) source, patched for ReiserFS (since we
use it on the box).
I have recently had some problems, but it seems to be an issue with the
amount of ram CUPS uses ... this is our printserver!
