I built and installed the 9.1rc1 kernel-2.4.21 and it seemed to work great, in some ways much better than the 2.4.19 versions. I was almost able to get my wusb11 working again (worked in MDK 8.2, quit with 9.0) but this turned out to be untrue, and indicated other problems. I found I was able

Since Praedor seems to be having many weird problems as posted on the list, I'm thinking it might be a power supply and/or temperature problem. The fact that he gets things to work, and then they die later would indicate a heat problem. I believe that MSI motherboard only has a minimal heatsink

Don't rule out the rest of the hardware either. I've replaced several motherboards, a few hard drives and a couple of sticks of memory over the past year. Good reason to keep an extra system around for testing. But that doesn't catch the slow death of bad UDMA and almost good memory. Jim

It would seem odd, however, that this heat effect is only apparent in 9.0 with 2.4.19 or 2.4.21 kernels. There were no problems of this sort in 8.2 with the 2.4.18 kernel. There is also a difference in the nature of the problems wrt usb between 2.4.19 and 2.4.21 such that it makes me suspect

Praedor- you're probably right, seeing as how no problems with 8.2. Then again, Jim C has a point: If using these kernels is more compute-intensive then wouldn't that logically jack up the heat? When I first got this MSI Ultra 2 board, I did some reading on a few hardware forums, and the
