Replying to my own list posts is probably the second sign of madness but I
do it quite often so please bear with me ;)

This seems to be down to the Z being in the dock, when it's out of the dock
the WLAN doesn't bomb out at all and I can happily stay SSH'd into it or
browse the web, irc, etc without any problems.

I'm currently putting this down to the Z getting perhaps confused about the
IP of the various interfaces, I'll look into this a bit more later on -
currently I've killed the Z with a failed attempt at installing OpenZaurus
*doh*, off to buy a CompactFlash reader later on, hopefully be able to
reflash with a working image, all good fun! :)
