First thing to do is to test a more recent kernel, see if we already fixed it. Latest mainline would be good. linux-next would be better. 2.6.26-rc2-mm1 (hopefully a couple of hours away) would be best. If we haven't fixed it then I'm afraid our best shot would be for you to run a bisection (please). http://www.kernel.org/doc/local/git-quick.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
