Hey guys, I tried to respond to this, but the redhat list has been
eating my mail lately. Hope this one gets thru. Anyway, I have the same
problem with our Dell P2/400s here. The guy I talked to at Dell tech
support said that one of the two BIOS fixed available for my machine
would fix it, but I haven't shut down the machine to apply it yet. If
you go to Dell's web site, click the support icon, then click the
troubleshooting one, you should get to the service tag entry form. Enter
your service tag number (on the back of the box), and then go to the
software section. There should be some BIOS updates there that,
according to tech support, do the trick...
HTH, Matt
