    I just grabbed memtest86 and will try it out tomorrow some time.
    Don't know about the device driver thing, but Andrew Morton just asked me, in
    relation to some oopsen I posted last week, which serial driver I'm using.
    Might wanna ask him about the bug he's chasing.

    I've got a 64M stick of 66MHz and 128M of 100MHz both running at 66Mhz, never
    had a problem with it before though..
