Why am I not surprised that its related to the crappy sis chipset on this motherboard? Anywho, thanks for the help. Now I can go on and test more of testing. Interesting note, although I have both modules in my Unstable install as well, the kernel loads them both in unstable but never swaps which one is in control. I dunno. If I see anything useful I will let you know. Thanks! Matthew -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
