I use the K8 kernel image when running a 64bit kernel but I have always used a 686 kernel image for 32 bit so I use 2.6.18-4-686 and not 2.6.18-4-k7. The description of the K7 kernel is: "2.6.18 on 32bit AMD Duron/Athlon/AthlonXP machines." but you are using a 64bit chip (albeit in 32bit mode). Maybe trying the 2.6.18-4-686 linux-image package will solve your problems. Cheers, Jonathan -- Registerd Linux user #445917 at http://counter.li.org/
