I had a couple, though it was on the last pre that called itself 2.2.0: a) it was not possible to change the irq for soundblaster to the value most cards use (5, and it defaults to 7? or is it vice versa). b) critical: it gave my xserver the blinkies. This is easy to do to an AT24 chipset, but the only thing that usually does it is rvplayer when the rv-server goes to heavy load (beats me why, but it crashes, and it can't restart without a reboot, and goes into the blinkies). Under 2.2.0, it went straight to the blinkies without giving me a good session first. rick --
