I doubt that's what's going on. See my other message. I saw the logs of
your cleanups. They happened in fall '99, which was long after it was
already broken. Of course, if it broke it more, I wouldn't know. ;) But I
doubt it.
What the broken machines have in common is the style of via's. That makes
me suspicious of the interrupt code, not the SCSI code.
