Hi again,

I knew that a "nocd" patch could do the job, but i had that game working
without it, and it's a little frustating to have to crack a game you bought! ;-)
I think the problem is the copy protection...
I am running a 2.4.26 kernel. I grabbed a CVS snapshot yesterday and upgraded
my kernel to 2.4.31, but it didn't solve the problem. I saw posts about it on
the mailing lists archives, but it was a 2.6 kernel issue...

Thanks in advance for your help,
Seb.
