This all sounds very familiar. You might be talking about my desktop machine (1.7GHz Athlon, VIA chipset). Can you send the output of lspci -vvv just out of interest? I've been using 2.5.69 with no big troubles (unless you call fdisk formatting the wrong partition big troubles:) for a while now, so I think if you're careful (i.e. make backups:) then you should be OK with 2.5.75 I think. Might be worth looking over the TODO list for that version... > did anyone manage to get ehci working on a similar configuration? Nope. Crashes my desktop box if I even try it. I'm half-persuaded it's an incompatibility between the software and the VIA chipset, and I'm sure that some developer isn't cleaning up after himself. 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.
