And since you mention you're using kernel 2.2.19, it's an easy "apt-get
install kernel-image-2.4.18" to upgrade to the 2.4.18 kernel with a
newer ee100 driver.

(Note: You may need to do an "apt-get update" first to grab the latest
list of packages from debian, if you haven't done that since the
install.)

With Windows Millennium, Microsoft was able to get the boot time down to
25 seconds. That's almost as short as it's uptime.
