Mike, What kernel is Voyage Linux using? I know we (Astlinux) plan to upgrade after we branch trunk to 0.6. The kernel version we're using now (2.6.20.x) is getting to be pretty old. I haven't seen your name on the Astlinux mailing list. If you could send some specific information to that list, I can see what we can do to help out. I'm one of the developers for the project and use several of the net5501's.
