    Hello Jeroen and other readers on the list(s),

    2 days ago I had send a message to the linux-hams list and to the SuSE Ham
    lists. It appeared on SuSE's lists, but not on this list - most likely
    because seconds before I subscribed.

    Anyway, I reported a complete hangup when using FBB with the SuSE 7.3 2.4.10
    kernel. With a suggestion of Jean-Paul I could find the 2.2.19 kernel on the
    SuSE CD which works fine as bypass. But I still want to run the new kernel.

    I fetched the latest kernel from SuSE, 2.4.14-SUSE (which is the 2.4.14
    kernel from http://www.kernel.org plus SuSE's patches as available on
    ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mantel/next/).

    This version of kernel and modules still freezes the system when I start
    FBB. Traces I added to FBB showed that it happens just after FBB has send
    its beacons. Note that my system also freezes with other programs, but not
    as fast as FBB did... I like to stress that this is not an FBB problem.

    After this I applied your 2 patches. It looks like now the system stays up!
    At least is didn't crash instantly anymore - of course I did not run any
    stress-tests obviously, but is sure looks good!

    Kind regards,

    Henk.
