I'll let you know what happens. The 200 h MTBF estimate might just have been a streak of luck: I reported two crashes in a row on July 7, and another one occurred on July 8 but I didn't get round to report that one yet. We might actually find out sooner than in a couple of weeks if the snapshot does *not* fix the problem. If it does, it'll take a little longer to be confident as you already mentioned. regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka http://www.mhoenicka.de AQ score 38
