Login as root and do sax2 -l first. If it fails with the same old problem, press the reset button and get ready for the next command line option. Make sure you press the reset button to get a hard reset.

From here on out we need to get creative.

Hi Stan & Gil, OK, I admit it... the suspense is killing me. How's it going, Gil? :-) I have a couple of items to throw into the mix for the "creative" phase, if it comes to that. Keep in mind that I can't recall if these have been discussed already, so forgive me if they have: Before running 'sax2 -l' or 'sax2 -r' has 'lspci' been tried?... just to see what the heck, if anything, shows up on the pci bus? Also 'sax2 -p' ... instruct SaX2 to display the results of the AGP/PCI probe? I realize it may already be doing this, given the error message, but... just in case... it might be worth asking for the details. I'll go back to the sidelines now; got my fingers crossed... - Carl
