That was the problem. an "aptitude install hotplug" solved the problem. Thanks. I had "hotplug" removed because with it i could not boot the 2.4.29 kernel anymore with sarge because that oopses. But maybe the driver can state more clearly what is going on? The only, minmal "hint" that this may has to do with "hotplug" is in the path!

Of course it would be better if the dirver could activate the resoruces it needs by it's own...writing that text is easier ;-) Rainer---<=====> Vertraulich // // <=====>--------------ocholl, Kiel, Germany ------------
