I couldn't even remember, that I did something in that area:-) I've looked
up in CVS, what I did there, and as far as I remeber it fixed autoprobing
for me (my NE2000 gets the interrupt via autoprobing). Maybe it's time
to check whether it still works.

I've never got any filesystem corruption on my Olli. And I've crashed it
pretty often, when doing the XF68_FBDev stuff.
