Ok, I lied about the i486ness... it's an IBM 486DX4/100 CPU.

Forgot that that can make a difference ;-) Now, the interesting thing is,
the Motherboard calls it: (from the BIOS screen)

Main Processor : Cx486DX4

The settings on the motherboard (jumprs, etc) are the same for the Cyrix
and IBM chips.

Might the IBM CPU have the same problems as the Cyrix? I just got another
OOPS about 20 min ago from 'traceroute' with nearly the SAME dump...

*sigh*

Time to go get a new computer, anyway -- quake is too slow ;-)
