I have everything the same, except for OSS & trace. I'll try these, it
wasn't clear that I'd need them.

I don't think so. My understanding is that all PCI cards on a PCI 
bas share an interrupt, typically IRQ 11. I'm willing to try removing 
the other cards to see if the problem is a hardware conflict, but since 
it works under Windows, I'm thinking it's more likely a software/configu-
ration issue.

Thanks very much for your advice.
