Vincent, I could not help but notice, by your postings, that you are
staying with the 2.4.7-12.3mdk kernel version. Do you know something we
do not, and would you like to share your thinking on this matter. With
all the later kernel versions out there, I am just wondering if this
kernel, 2.4.7-12.3mdk, is a bit more stable. I have installed the 8.1
beta2 version, and upgraded to the 2.4.8-18mdk kernel version. I am
getting some unexplained X server crashes, and I am not sure why. I also
have the NVIDIA chip on my graphics card, and these crashes may be
related to this situation, and not the kernel at all.

Dan, on a related issue, would you tell me which driver you went with
for your NVIDIA Video Card? Are you using Mandrake's "nv" driver or did
you use the NVIDIA driver? Are you still having any trouble with your X
Server and or display while using the Mandrake beta2?

Thanks to all,
drjung
