Anyone got the same problem ? I have the same problem, I'm running 2.6.15-r1. I was thinking it was hardware related, as I've been unable to find any similar cases in forum/list/web searches. Maybe I'm not searching for the 'right' terms, but I've been operating Gentoo for about a month now and this problem has persisted. On 3/16/06, Bob Sanders wrote: > I can't actually say.

I've never heard of it, though I will definitely check it out. Thanks adj, for asking the question that I hadn't gotten around to asking yet, and thanks Bob for the suggestions.
