Oh great.  I now know how quirky the VT8235 southbridge is.  BTTV and IDE banging DMA out is freezing it.

So I have a few choices:

1. I can remove the card -- but it's a good card!  Downside is that there's some fuzziness, so I'm still running it off the VCR.
2. I can force DMA off on all my IDE drives... which is only a temporary solution.  I can send a bug report to the Linux Kernel developers in the meanwhile.
3. I can switch to SCSI drives... which means looking for a 60 meg SCSI HD and a CD-RW.

Boy do I need a good job.

It makes me wonder if the Canadian economy is in a similar condition ("critical") as the US economy.

possibly, but some of the outsourcing the american companies are doing is going north of the border, just just to india.

Though, the thing is, americans can't understand indian english nearly as well as canadian english.
