Three things: 1/ did you try the backported audio stuff I posted yesterday - there were some issues that were resolved between 2.2.xx and 2.3/4.xx these should be present in the backport. It does work OK against 2.2.17pre10-ben1. 2/ You could try separating out audio, X, & network-related fault areas by running each area separately for a while? 3/ It tends to look (as Michel said yesterday) potentially like a hardware problem. I assume you have no over-clocking or stuff like that going on? (unlikely on PPC I agree but I thought I'd ask). BTW I've never had a random lock-up on Xpmac... good luck, Iain. ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
