SubjectRe: Noname Alpha freezes with ad1848 > 2.1.115

Aha.....so it's not just me. I have the same problem with my Multia.
Both 2.1.129
and 2.1.130 will freeze on boot IF the sound support is compiled in.
2.1.129 would
also freeze with modules, though I think I tried loading the modules
from
2.1.130 the
other night and they worked. I'll check that again when I get a chance
and see if they
do.

Oh, and all seems to work just fine on 2.0.36

Glad I'm not alone here, was beginning to doubt myself !!

regards,
rdp
