When I first installed Slackware 3.1 with kernel 2.0.0, I had this problem all the time. My solution was to build and install a kernel based around 2.0.30. It is usually nessecary to rebuild a kernel when installing from a distribution set anyway, so all you need to do is get hold of the source for the more recent kernel. This may not help your problem, but it did with me. Cheers Tim Gildersleeve tim@otcs.demon.co.uk Oak Tree Computer Services http://www.otcs.demon.co.uk/linux
