It loads fine but my problems start when bringing up kde3.3.  I am suspecting Arts.  At the end it begins to oscillate and it is almost impossible to stop withoug a reboot. :(

Just so I don't get bored, I've got an problem with the snd_ich.ko that I have on one motherboard.  I now have no really workable sound.  This one is a problem in current, I think and not kde based but I'm so confused now that I'm not sure of anything;)

Thanks,
