Hello,

the hardware notes claim that the awacs driver can cause trouble on 
some G4 Macs, hints about interrupt storms. I've never had any trouble 
with this driver but I don't have an awacs-equipped G4 either - just a 
G3 and a PowerBook. My guess is that those problems were caused by the 
old, horribly buggy interrupt code which has been improved a lot in the 
last two years.

So, does anyone have any serious problems with awacs on any hardware, 
especially G4s? If nobody can reproduce problems here I'm going to 
remove the warning.

have fun
Michael
