Gentleman,<br><br> Strange issues with extra memory (> 1Gb) and Via hw...follows:<br><br> 1) Kernel 2.6.22-5 with Fedora patches, VIA High Definition Audio Controller (rev 10) - 1106:3288 (rev 10), hsfmodem.<br><br>
2) hsfmodem-7.80.02.02full-1 and alsa-driver-linuxant-1.0.19.1-<div>1 installed and working perfectly....so far...<br><br> 3) Added an extra Gb RAM (now 2 Gb), and nothing else (no new kernel or extra hardwares, etc...);<br>
<br> 4) Linux freezes at boot (Kernel Oops...);<br><br> 5) Hsf and alsa-linuxant removed....system boots normally<br><br> 6) Reinstalling alsa-driver-linuxant-1.0.19.1-1...installation ok and sound working<br>
<br>
7) Reinstalling hsfmodem-7.80, results at loading drivers:<br><br>kernel: Oops: 0000 [#1]<br>kernel: SMP<br>kernel: CPU: 1<br>Warning: no device detected by hsf driver - HDA modems may require reboot<br>kernel: EIP: 0060:[<f9329d61>] Tainted: P VLI<br>

8) Tries: removing some codecs, grub boot parameteres tried: apic off,
irqpoll, pci off, and others...nothing so far, same EIP address .<br>
<br> 9) Removing extra Gb Ram...working again....Update
kernel...not possible at this moment...several apps linked to it..DBs,
in home develpd apps, etc....<br><br> 10) Attached some extra info.<br><br>Any help will be very welcomed, svp. Merci beacoup.<br>
