hi all !

My uptime in Linux doesn't really go over 2 days... why ?

Because there is some very deep driver issue with my audio hardware,
VIA 8237 audio.
That is when working, my sound system suddenly fails, and starts to
produce noise.
- the problem is so deep that even "init 6" - full restart doesn't helps ! !

I still hear that noise even in GRUB Bootloader, where should be no
sound at all ! ! !

That is very old bug, affecting SUSE Linux 10.0 and maybe earlier...
link:
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=263022

Platform: openSUSE 10.2, 32-bit, AMD Sempron, VIA KM400 chipset, VIA
8237 audio, 1GB of RAM.

Things that help:
-Reboot into Windows, (windows drivers seem to restart my audio hardware)
-System shutdown via init 0, and then cold-start

any ideas?
