Hi - just installed both rev1&2 - with v1 I had problems with my RTL8139C card - only works with CPUS=1 the alternative (orbtz?) driver intermittently freezed. I was hoping rev2 would fix this - but unfortunately the same problem is still present... but in Rev2 the problem with connecting to servers was also present... for both I did use the AppleHDA patcher to get my ALC883 working...

Anyone have any ideas how I can fix the networking problems - the issue does seem a driver issue and how it copes with networking when two (AMD/VIA?) cores are present - using the alternative (orbtz?) driver semi fixes the problem but if you notice ping times - some are minus with two cores, normal when using one core. I read this is a CPU driver issue, it was present on Win32 machines some time back and its related to core timing ... Anyone know if I buy an alternate network card e.g. Intel/RTL 1GB card - whether this issue will be fixed?

Anyway a big thanks to Zeph for the hard work.
