: Thanks,

I am currently running Linux v1.1pl75 on home-made-no-name Intel P5/90, 256c, 32MB
motherboard based computer. It has ncr53c815 PCI SCSI adapter and OAK ISA-087
"accelerator" SVGA adapter. Linux package I'm using is Slackware v2.1.0
After newer kernel there hasn't been a problem of any kind.
This computer (lux.iuakk.fi in fact) is used for our Internet mail-gw, http-server,
ftp & lotsa other Internet-related things.

Forget to mention, it has Quantum-Empire 2100S 2160MB SCSI drive- with ncr scsi
adapter it runs lightingly fast!
