So, I told you about random lockups on one of our systems which I blamed
an interrupt handler bug in the IPAC code for: I was wrong.

While one might be conserative and call an unbound loop in an interrupt
handler a bug anyway, it's not going to harm while the hardware (in this
case: the ELSA PCI card) works OK.

It did not do any harm to our system and it wasn't the cause for the
random lockups. Don't ask, I've been through PC-hardware-crap hell several
times in the last days. It seems to be fixed now, with neither replacing
the ELSA ISDN card nor patching anything in I4B.

Next time I'll buy an Ultra Sparc Server, running Solaris 8, with support
contract! Or anything else which makes someone else but me responsible for
fixing it...


Just FYI.


Martin
