Hi

you know that this option is marked experimental and that the kernel devs warn 
about the usage and the possibilities it might not work.
probably that is the reason that it doesn't work.

you could try an .24 rc2 kernel here if it's fixed in latest upstream:
http://www.archlinux.org/~tpowa/2.6.24/

but do this at your own risk ;)
