Hi,
I've used 'git bisect' to track down a change in the latest git tree
that is causing dbus-daemon to sit and spin at the time GNOME launches,
preventing nautlius from ever running.
The bad commit is:
commit eb3dfb0cb1f4a44e2d0553f89514ce9f2a9fcaf1
Author: Andreas Gruenbacher <[EMAIL
This patch (as850b) disables remote wakeup (and everything else!) on
all EHCI ports when the shutdown() method is called. If remote wakeup
is left active then some systems will reboot instead of powering off.
This fixes Bugzilla #7828.

Framebuffer support for the Silicon Motion SM501
multi-function chip.
This driver provides a pair of framebuffer interfaces
for the CRT and LCD panel interfaces, and some basic
acceleration for the cursor.
The patch has been updated slightly from the previous
version to including being able to

An issue with sys_async_wait():

A new release of the SM501 core mfd driver.
This driver provides the core functionality of the

two framebuffers, video acceleration, USB, and
many other peripheral blocks.
The driver exports a number of entries for the
peripheral drivers to use.

Add cursor enable/disable, very useful if you wish a full screen boot

Cursor can be disabled from kernel command line:

Hello Linus,
The UBI tree has been in -mm for a few releases now and we would like to

No. Especially for things like localversion, the object tree (if it is
different) is very much where you'd put that marker.

It's a Thinkpad T43p.
2.6.20 was working fine.

NetWinder, EBSA285 (which the NetWinder is a derivative of), the N2100,
etc are PCI based and are all well proven in the field.
However, I have
