Steve McCrystal made noise to Bas Heijermans:

Hi Steve,

I know, it's on some board, dut it doesn't help him do:-)
The nice part of it all is that he believes Dani, the person who has screwed
many systems with her buggy driver:-)
I have had problems with the 2.22 and 2.23 drivers, so I went back to the
drivers that came with the card, all problems went away, maybe the have
created problems in those drivers because of the G400 support, who knows.
But I never seen any IRQ problems, the kernal never ever halted on those
drivers just the WPS stopped:-)
And Netscape is a story on itself:-)
