thanks for the suggestion! i may not have a chance till the weekend, but i'll try applying the diff and see how it goes. > It is possible that your power supply is having issues. > > With my net5501 I was seeing hard lockups until I upgraded to a stronger > power supply (same voltage, more ampere).
