Just to chime in since I restarted this thread. Tried 2.4.4-ac8 /wo
success, the same set of oops's that everyone else gets. Oh well, I
appreciate the attempt.

Hi,
I noticed discussion of the various Via KT133A chipset problems related
to
Athlon optimized kernels has trailed off. Are people successfully using
the patch that Alan Cox posted, or are there still problems?

Just tested the -ac7 with K7 optimizations on. I see the same behavior of
oopsing right after boot:
[...]
Freeing unused kernel memory: 216k freed
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
[...]
Just fine when I go back down to k6-3, et al, optimizations.

I will test it on Sunday evening, when I get back access to my Athlon.
Again I am not sure if I had the same problem related to the
compiler-optimizations. My problems (system freeze) started with 2.4.3-ac7.

Not much. You can avoid running syslogk. The one unbuffered log source
is the screen in text mode if not running it via syslogk
