Please note that the original problem I have reported under this
subject line, is a real CL driver problem, not QEMM or chipset
related. The problem appears only with the 1.41 version, and has
been verified by several other users from various places.

(I mentioned two manifestations for the problem - one which involves
Delrina Winfax Pro, which hangs while rasterising the fax cover page,
and one when running Wintach and then trying to print out the results.
The latter problem has been reported to me after my original posting
- I can't verify it. Both problems go away when reverting to V1.32 of
the drivers).

At any rate, I have sent Cirrus the problem report. Their reaction was
"pull V1.43 off our BBS".

Okay: I can't access their BBS from here. Can any kind soul contact the
CL BBS (510-440-9080) and pull K5246-D2.ZIP off conf (6)? If someone can
do it, and then upload it to cica (or perhaps send it to me by EMail),
we'll be able to check this new driver out.

BTW, I do like my CL5248/VLB video card...

Thank you!
