This time, I tried it on a similar PC (same motherboard model, but not the exact same machine). I had no problems with 2.6.18. I looked a little close and I noticed that the original machine was actually overclocked. I did the same to the machine that works and it is now not working. So the problem with the mac card seems to be the overclocking. I completely forgotten about it since it was a test machine anyway. So this just leaves the problem I've experienced on the machine with the PC u160 and the u/uw dual card. > > Should I try 2.6.19 as well? > > There's not a lot of point in doing so. If/when we come up with a > 2.6.20-rc6 fix we'll know whether it is applicable to 2.6.19.x. I'll try 2.6.19 on the machine with the 2 scsi cards with the option roms disabled. I'd rather not run a -rc kernel on this machine. -- Lab tests show that use of micro$oft causes cancer in lab animals Got Gas???
