Have you went back to the old kernel to test it again? If it does the |
40 |
same with the old kernel, it's likely not the kernel. If it works like |
41 |
it used to then it is the kernel. |

|
43 |
That said, it is weird and I have ran into this sort of thing in the |
44 |
past. Something works fine then breaks or acts weird with a newer |
45 |
kernel. Usually I just stick with the old kernel until a couple |
46 |
releases goes by and then try again. They fix stuff pretty fast. |
