Yes. I was having a problem with PPP - after 6-8 hours it would drop the connection, and then die shortly after reconnecting with the messages in /var/log/ppp.log Oct 20 07:14:33 fleming pppd[11094]: No response to 5 echo-requests Oct 20 07:14:33 fleming pppd[11094]: Serial link appears to be disconnected. Oct 20 07:14:33 fleming pppd[11094]: Connection terminated. Getting rid of the module and then reloading it seemed to cure the problem for at least the next 6-8 hours. There have been reports of memory leaks with 2.0.31 - I wonder? And then last night while I was sleeping, the whole machine locked up solid on me. No error messages, nothing on the screen. I'm using 2.0.30 now - just to see if the problems go away. I think they have. I'm going to take another stab at 2.0.31 to see if I can figure out the PPP problem at least -- I'm running LinuxHQ now, so it's about time I learned how to do some serious kernel hacking. So be careful with 2.0.31 - it's a massive upgrade (7 months, 976K patch from 2.0.30) - so there are going to be lots and lots of bugs. (Arrgh, just found a HTML bug on the changes page on LinuxHQ - nobody told me!) Cheers, - Jim
