i've got the same problem on my desktop computer, external 56k modem via serial link. i'm suspecting harware problem, like irq conflict or anything like that.
when i'm playing a 3d game, irc connexions break down, and reconnect when i quit the game. ben Message de WMFender-Westwind, le vendredi 26 septembre : > Hi all > > I have a Sony laptop PCG-FXA32 running Debian SID, kernel 2.4.20 (hand-rolled) > with an odd problem.
