Hello,

I'm getting loads of "CRC error in an AAL5 frame" message in my system log 
- sometimes one every few minutes. Applying this patch made no difference. 
Everything seems to be working OK, so should I just ignore these errors, or 
is there someone looking for help to debug this problem? I would be happy 
to provide extra diagnostic output if anyone wanted it.

John
