This happened to me too with my 2940U or my 2940U2W (don't remember). Check wheter you are correctly terminating everything (i.e. internal and external bus) (even if it works in M$ Win) (or set auto termination) (lots of parents..:). I solved it by enabling auto termination which I disabled cause I thought I was smart. seemed as if I wasn't :/ -- Weasel http://www.cosy.sbg.ac.at/~ppalfrad/ PGP encrypted messages prefered.
