Hi: Just tried to boot 2.4.4-ac8 on my thinkpad: I have an eepro100

Hi: Been battling w. my new Gravis joystick [kernel 2.4.3-ac5] - the
driver wouldn't recognise it through the gameport, but would through the
USB port [the stick came with a converter]. I did have one problem though:

the oops through ksymoops, and it seemed to indicate that the problem
occurred while in the aic7xxx driver [although I may, of course, be
