Hi, Just a heads up, simtec have release 1.3 of the firmware, seems that it's cured at least one person's problems with X, also should be able to cope with more PCI gfx cards. Note that the instructions don't mention that you can boot the flash rom from disk with something like: boot wd0a:flash-x86.img Also note that the firmware can now support kernels upto 5MB in total size (text, data and bss), which means that I may update the INSTALL kernel to include some of the devs that I removed from it, but it means that we may have to require people update their firmware for the next release. (post 1.6) Oh the image is available from: http://www.simtec.co.uk/products/EB110ATX/support.shtml Cheers, Chris
