Since you're already willing to completely re-load the box, how about you load it with 2.2.8. Unless there are some features in 3.0 you can't live without, it'd be interesting if 2.2.8 (or 2.2-STABLE) made your problems go away. It would isolate the hardware/software question, and perhaps give you a stable system in the meantime. -crl -- Chad R.
