Reflashing the BIOS from a fresh image might be worth a try, after 6 years. If the problem persists, then there's probably a more serious hardware defect. I assume this is the only machine having this problem? At least I have never even heard of such a case before. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
