mpc8xx - power save modes - PIT

Hi Conn,

That was one of the reasons why i tried playing with the PIT... As I
said, the following code snippet crashes on me...

      init_timer(&timer);
      timer.expires=1000;
      timer.function=timer_handler;
      add_timer(&timer);

I guess I'll have to dig in the kernel sources to find out exacly why
it crashes before playing with the power modes... I'm running out of
options here... :(

Thanks a _lot_ for your help, Conn.
I very much appreciate.
