Marco - thanks. I did see all of your posts...but there is still a basic 
issue missing.

at what point is/was this addressed?

If 3.2 contains a driver that DOES work well, then why is it still being 
listed as an issue.......

I am just trying to get to a solid answer ;)

I have seen what seems to be a lockup that could be caused by this driver 
(in the posts) and that concerns me ....

thanks so far for the help ;)
