I permit myself to reply, since i was CCed.
I have this kind of error at the beginning. It was quite strange, but
caused by IRQ problems:
* eth0, cdrom (ide1 or something like that), audio controler, usb on the
same IRQ
* from time to time i get very strange behavior:
** lost CDROM
** cannot move mouse
** strange latency on the network (ping to google go from 65ms to 500ms)
* when i :
** use USB
** use audio
In fact, that was a hidden IRQ conflict... I solve it by upgrading BIOS.
Kind regards
Sylvain Le Gall
ps: maybe it has nothing to do with your problem, if so please forgive
me for the noise
