Gee! 8-) and you suggested it to me!  It was the patch against 2.4.3-pre6
which corrected the system clock slowing down, due to the interrupts being
disabled for too long in framebuffer mode.  Well, it worked! I'm using it now,
and as I mentioned in the past email, my only trouble now is the non-powering
down of the machine.

Ah well, again, thanks for monitoring.And here's a few lines to add to that
patch too...your patch had neglected to turn on printk for all modules, and
when I compiled my kernel, that was fine, but my modules couldn't see
printk()!
