The first problem is in if_bge.c. Revision 1.7 breaks the driver. With this
revision the card can't communicate at all with anything.

Second problem. I'm not sure when this started happening, but it was recently.
Just do a /usr/local/linux-sun-jdk1.4.2/bin/java -version (assuming you have it
installed) and watch it hang taking up 100% cpu. The cpu it's taking is listed
as "system" in top though, and this command used to work fine (need it to build
native java 1.4.1 and openoffice).

Just letting people know.
