Ditto here, at least as far back as 2.4.8-ac2 (nvidia driver blew up on ac7 so I haven't tried anything more recent). Tried to log out to reboot to 2.4.10+k7fix and logging out (X restarted) triggered it. (I have -got- to get to journalled root fs one of these days.) So you might look at 2.4.8 and 2.4.8-ac2, see whats changed. No ext3 here, just ext2 and reiser+lvm. (On a possibly unrelated note, 2.4.10 + k7fix works like a champ on the iwill kk266 I've got, which was showing the athlon oops-on-boot bug.) --- -----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK----- Version: 3.1 [www.ebb.org/ungeek] GIT/CC/CM/AT d--(-)@ s+:-- a-->?
