- It was me :)
- I tried to overclock my 1260 board to 66Mhz. I've been using it at
- this speed for some time without any problem, till I wanted to compile
- the whole linux kernel. There I got some random errors. After having
- switched back to 50 Mhz the problem disappeared. I suppose that the
- problem lies with the memory speed and not the 060 chip. I have
- 60ns RAM, but when overclocked at 66Mhz the access can go down to
- 54ns(I don't rember exactly). Actually I'm trying to find out a
- 60Mhz oscillator.
- Except the problem mentioned above the board ran fine at 66Mhz.
- I could render several pictures with Lightwave without any crash.
