I really understand your frustration. I hope that the problem gets fixed with the volume knob, but if not, we'll hear about it REAL fast. Because if the knob just simulates button-presses, then there's gonna be a whole bunch of button-presses getting fed into these units.

I had a strange thought related to this bug. Since I use the remote mostly, I don't get hit by the bug. But I was thinking about the period when these bug started to get reported...

You don't happen to be running a recompiled kernel, do you? You know, to do something unusual at bootup, like showing an alternate logo or running your own program?

I'm not making an accusation, just fishing for possible commonalities in the bug reports.

As far as the Empeg folks are concerned, I'm sure they're just as anxious to get the bug fixed as you are. It would really suck if the Mark2's had this problem. So try not to be so hard on 'em- they're counting on your bug reports to help them find its cause.
