while we're throwing in our $.02
I just had my transmitter go loopy on my box forcing me to reboot.
I'm running 2.2.13 with libc 5.4.46-2, aic7xxx (7880 onboard), on an Intel
Providence PR440FX motherboard.
The system was up for 60 days without
incident before this little fit.
This is the first time i've seen it happen on a 2.2 system (I have 5 up,
mixed .10/.12/.13's)
No unusual traffic spikes occured around the time of occurence, traffic
was around 30kB/s.
