I'm using gcc 3.3.2. > USB seems to oops not matter which compiler I use... For me USB has always been unreliable on the alpha. It's so bad I just removed the USB card altogether and now I use my laptop for USB stuff. (I haven't used USB on alpha in over a year now) > Which buslogic card do you have? I have a Bt-956C I that I can try in the LX. That's the one. Well only if you need an entertaining way to spend your Saturday. I'll play with it some more tomorrow. As someone else indicated the warning about scsi debug is not fatal, however my oops happened right after loading the Buslogic driver. But since it didn't get to init I can't dump it to ksymoops...and the alpha has so many registers to copy by hand... ;) Thanks, Bob McElrath [Univ. of California at Davis, Department of Physics]
