Maybe they are sent inverted. 
I had to realize today (and wasted waaaay too much time on this ...)
that our cable provider in Cologne (ISH) changed our cable from 
non-inverted to inverted signals without telling us when they 
completed their network modifications to support internet and telephone. 

I guess that was the problem somebody else on this list had a few
weeks ago with his cable (also ISH).

Did you have SMP support in your kernel? I put another spinlock in
there around the same time but forgot to initialize it. This is fixed now.
