Binkd won't work on my Amithlon system. It bitches about a function
that's not present. I'm also stuck with a RealTeck 8109 pci network card.
I've tried four intel based card that's meant to work, but couldn't get
it to.

I haven't been able to get sound going. (Not that a BBS really needs
that). 

Every now and again, I have to do a hard power reboot of the pc. But
mostly just re-booting Amithlon is enough.

The issue with running it in a VPS is present with all *uae* versions, in
that the mouse goes nuts and as Amiga user's know, a working mouse is a
must.
