Do you know what particular QLogic card you have in your alpha? I can confirm that there are still problems using my own qlogic card with beta3; but I have the added bonus of a SCSI/ethernet combo card with a PCI bridge on board, which seems to bring added problems on alpha -- I can't use this ethernet card from 2.4.24/25, either. I'm hoping that *some* qlogic cards will work better with a 2.4.25 kernel; if you have a different card than mine, I'd love to send you a 2.4.25-based image to test with (once I have it built). Can you send the output of lspci on your system? Thanks, -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
