Just for clarification: there are at least two bugs described - one in the above link, and this new one. The former could only be fixed by reboot, the latter - by rmmod/modprobe sequence. The former had special info in dmesg, the latter does not. Hopefully they both are fixed in 2.6.18-2. I will set it up as soon as time permits (it is my main desktop, which is rarely turned off) and report if problem still persists. > thanks > > -- > maks -- Evgeniy Polyakov
