63 Hi John,
64
65 just an suggestion:
66 If trying vanilla sources it would be an idea, to download both:
67 The vanilla version of the kernel you have encountered problems with
68 and the newest shiny one: The kernel of all kernels - the king of the
69 road of all versions: linux-2.6.39.1
70 ;)
71
72 ...just for the case, the kernel hackers -- Linus and crew -- have
73 fixed the bug already.
74
75 Fingers crossed!
76 Best regards,
77 mcc
