That remains to be seen - it might be a hint or not.

the trace should be fine for a first glance, but uvm is unchartered territory for me, I'm just getting familiar with PCI and driver stuff... does the trace always point at the same function?

A wild guess - I recently found out that some of my memory modules are flaky, changing them cured a few ( but not all ) weird problems. Do things like RAMometer show any weirdnesses? I seem to remember that you have a G3 card - does the cache run at the right speed?

good luck
