The odd slightly worrying memory corrupt message (as usual), but nothing serious. btw according to a few messages I've seen on the on the Linux kernel development list, 2.0.30 should be avoided.

Gary, if I were you I'd revert back to 2.0.2x and hold off for 2.0.31. cheers carl -- Carl Ansley (carl@caverock.co.nz) Phone: +64 3 3664242 Cave Rock Software / Cave Rock Internet Fax: +64 3 3665478 Unit 5b 242 Ferry Road, PO Box 22488, Christchurch, New Zealand
