As expected ...
As I already noted earlier, our drivers currently aren't SMP-capable. We
definitely should fix this and should revise the locking stuff which also has
changed in recent kernel version. This changes should also be done in a way,
that the modules work with all (2.2, 2.3 and 2.4) kernels.
Any volounteers to do it?
