Thank you Antonio very much.
I looked carefully at your comments and did not find an error like yours
No message RANT
But i did find a message in lsmod about a missing eprom
and i think there could be something wrong.
I have copyed only a few lines out lsmod; lspci and dmesg.
I can send the complete output, if you want
Thanks
Erik
