Forget it. Even 2.4 is flaky, but 2.4.21 or .22 may help a little. You could also then try 2.6.0-test1. Be warned that it will be a fair amount of work to upgrade from a 2.2 kernel, I'd suggest that you get one of the more recent distributions e.g. SlackwareV9.0 or RedHatV9.0. 73, Ged. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
