Hi
Never received a conformation of my mail below, it would have been
nice to have some kind of acknowledgement. thanks.
To add some more info to the below, the machine is running (almost)
fine with kernel 2.2.25, though it cost me blood to compile it on
RH9 and some elements (ext3, sound driver etc)
are not supported. So the conclusion is that this is a definitely 2.4.x
problem and not an hardware issue. Please let me know how to proceed
from here.
All the best
