Looks like i spoke too soon about that wireless card :o) It seems that attempting to do anything to the network configuration makes the ipw2200 module seg fault and sometimes this also locks up the keyboard responsiveness - don't ask me why, it's just what's happening... Since i need to change from wired to wireless now i'm back at home this leaves me with a bit of a problem since i can't do any work until i resolve this :o( I'm just trying somehow to force the uninstall of the wireless modules so i can reinstall them and hopefully get some functionality back. At the moment though it doesn't seem to be overly easy when whatever i do crashes the damn module (or maybe the kernel, but i don't think so since the gui still partially responds!) Martin.

I've run into a "problem" over the last few days and was wandering if anyone might have any idea what's causing it... Every now and again the keyboard stops working (internal keyboard, not an external one - this thing has no PS/2 ports so i can't use my external keyboard) I'm assuming it's a key combination that i'm hitting because i think it's linked into when i do a <CTRL><ALT> combination but i can't work out for the life of me what key combination it might be or what to try to get it back. Very frustrating since with no keyboard there is little i can do but hit the power button. If i use the mouse to shut it down the the shutdown sequence causes a page fault, so something's not happy. I actually wander whether maybe it was the built in gigabit network since i enabled that for a few days while i was away working...
