zeros on analog input with NI Daqcard 6036E

Hi everybody -

sorry for bringing this up again, but I am desperately trying to 
understand why my national instruments daqcard 6036E cannot sample 
anything close to the rate possible under windows. At the moment 
sampling all 16 channels with 1 kHz results in a mixture of sensible 
data and zeros. We have tested with a sine wave and the card really 
loses the data at these points.
The computer is fast (almost 3 GHz) and has 512 MB Ram, so that 
shouldn't be a problem. I installed comedi end of october, has anything 
changed significantly since then? I am running debian, kernel 2.4.22.
PLEASE, I don't know what to do - any help will be greatly appreciated!!

Miriam
