Subject: Re: 2.6.29 final

As of now I'm back to 2.6.28.7, I simply cannot keep my ethernet hdwe working 
for more than about 24 hours with .29 final.

Please, we need a 29.1 that fixes this.

Other problems encountered with 29 final:

qjackd went into a loop eating all 4 core at about 50%, restarting it fixed
knotify grabbed 100% of core0 at the same time the network died _I think_

when I tried to do a graceful shut down after restarting knotify, x eventually 
quit, but hung onto the console, I couldn't select another as it just echoed 
the keys I pressed to the terminal screen and I was force to use the front 
panel rest button to effect a reboot.  Which was good because I rebooted to 
2.6.28.7. and 2.6.28.9 is now building in the background, with its usual 5 
warnings about section mis-matches.

Thanks everybody.
