Oooooooh.... Spooky this is aint it!

how many ppl now have replied to this mail saying that they are having
similier probs? I too have the same problem with my setup occasionally and
I am running a Pixel64/AteoBus syetm with P96. I have found that waggleing
the Pixel64 for a few seconds after powering down the system clears it (not
had the prob for a few weeks now, but had it every other week for a while
before). Then on power up everything is back to normal.

heh heh,is there some new virus out there attacking us GFX card owners or
summat? ;-))

Ohh, and all of my hardware probs/conflicts have all been started since
installing Yam2.1!

Cheerio :-)
