Nice little box for kernel compiles (actually it is a java application server running apache / tomcat and various webapps, but until our stability issues are ironed out I can play with it). 2.4.19pre4ac2 survived the stress-kernel test from VA Linux for hours. Something no other kernel in the 2.4 series was able to do. Now if I could please get a sensor driver for the ADM1026... Regards Henning -- Dipl.-Inf. (Univ.) Henning P.
