Hi Ingo, I've seen a few hangs with 2.6.16-rt17 - my feeling was that
they had to do with high network load - and this time something was left
behind after the reboot (I have to set up a serial console, it is not
happening very frequently). Most probably this does not say much but
here it goes anyway:

I've switch from sk98lin to skge this morning using 2.6.17-rc3-git17
since the sk98lin driver simply drops my connection after a little while
and also has a lot of problem enbling the connection with my linksys
(although it`s linux also).
Suprisingly my PC frozed about an hour after the driver switch? Maybie
it is not a problem with the real-time patch of Ingo since I'm not using
it?
