I have had a few hard freezes, and I think they are related to a small bug in either multiword dma or irq masking. If I have those options enabled, I occasionally get a machine freeze, caused by xmms (once by slocate via cron)...(that's what the xmon debugger says anyways) --Nelson Abramson -- Shouldn't people be arrested and persecuted for engaging in their constitutional rights? http://www.opendvd.org ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
