I tried to strace it. Last thing strace managed to write was: ioctl(4, 0x8914 (no comma, not including the trird argument). I tried to switch of some compile-time parameters I changed from 2.4.4, but problem persisted. After reversing 2.4.5 patch and recompiling the kernel (using exactly the same config), the problem dispaeared. I include the .config used. I'll try to gen any aother information you might consider some use, but currently have no idea what it might be. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jan 'Bulb' Hudec
