Alan: after re-reading your post, I have to retract my earlier |
| 23 |
statement. It seems *your* problem is a separate one from the one that |
| 24 |
Dan and I are having! |
| 25 |
|

I am running on 2.6.37. I just tried to upgrade to 3.2.6 earlier today |
| 27 |
but ran into some other problems (there seems to be a bug in the |
| 28 |
linux-3 kernel that breaks WEP for ath9k wireless cards, that and for |
| 29 |
some reason `shutdown -h now' halts but does not power off; both are |
| 30 |
known and there are patches, just haven't made it into the tree yet). |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
The problem I was reporting has nothing to do with the kernel (same |
| 33 |
kernel since last August). |
