So does anyone with or without SMP on powerpc see deadlocks since
4.99.55?

I had never put enough load onto my Pegasos to confirm that, but I have
deadlocks on my PowerMac single-G4 with NetBSD 3.1 from time to time.

I already reported that to you some time ago, and suspected it has to do with the mac-audio driver. Now it looks to me that it is caused by high
network load.

That seems more likely, I haven't seen any awacs-related problem for years. What kind of network controller do you use? My G4's got a gigabit gem, no problems so far and I've been torturing it quite a bit.

have fun
Michael
