19 Hi,
20 the reason that pegasos-dev-sources is marked stable is because it is the only
21 kernel that fully supports the Pegasos at this time. gentoo-dev-sources has
22 partial support for it, but lacks the necessary drivers for the builtin
23 gigabit controller and an ugly bug-fix for the UHCI USB controller.
24
25 I'm about to upload -r2 which contains a couple of bug- and security fixes as
26 well as a couple of updated patches, hopefully that kernel will not have the
27 bug you have encountered.
