[...] of bug reports happened right after Maemo Summit in week 41, but I expect way busier times ahead) Karsten concentrates on technical stuff. It’s good to have him back as now stuff gets done that [...]

Great! Any code modifications that you guys plan to make that you think would be worth submitting back upstream?

if you’re getting that kind of degrading, then yeah, it could be the PSU dropping dead. or, check for dying (leaking) capacitors on the motherboard itself, or bad RAM.

Yeah, something along those lines. My guess by now is, that the main board is slowly degrading, causing all these almost random symptoms.
The weird things are, that it started out of the blue without messing with hardware. Also, the previous four NIC started preventing the box from booting sometime after removing yet another card. It did work for a brief period, there’s no direct correlation to any single change…

Sounds like a power supply problem — either something popped on one of the cards (or the main board) or it’s the PSU. Alternatively — overheating?

resource conflict, I’d guess. which physical slot a device is in can change what resources it’s assigned by the BIOS, and obviously what other devices are also present affects this too.

Hmm, the power should be fine, not that much in the box, and I already removed stuff — but thanks nonetheless for the hint, Flávio!
Much appreciated, I probably should try that. What’s really puzzling me is the shuffle of cards, both inside the box and with spare parts I luckily had around. What ~~works~~ boots almost looks random. No single change is sufficient.
