Hello Jeroen and other readers on the list(s),

2 days ago I had send a message to the linux-hams list and to the SuSE Ham
lists. It appeared on SuSE's lists, but not on this list - most likely
because seconds before I subscribed.

Anyway, I reported a complete hangup when using FBB with the SuSE 7.3 2.4.10
kernel. With a suggestion of Jean-Paul I could find the 2.2.19 kernel on the
SuSE CD which works fine as bypass. But I still want to run the new kernel.

I fetched the latest kernel from SuSE, 2.4.14-SUSE (which is the 2.4.14
kernel from http://www.kernel.org plus SuSE's patches as available on
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mantel/next/).

This version of kernel and modules still freezes the system when I start
FBB. Traces I added to FBB showed that it happens just after FBB has send
its beacons. Note that my system also freezes with other programs, but not
as fast as FBB did... I like to stress that this is not an FBB problem.

After this I applied your 2 patches. It looks like now the system stays up!
At least is didn't crash instantly anymore - of course I did not run any
stress-tests obviously, but is sure looks good!

Kind regards,

Henk.
