Hi Twig, Just a few questions. . . . When you applied and tested the patch you referenced, did you apply and test the patch on a mainline kernel or an Ubuntu kernel? The reason I ask is you mentioned in comment #16 that "The mainline 2.6.31 rc3 kernel worked correctly" which would lead me to believe this is not a bug in the mainline kernel. Just to be sure could you test the latest 2.6.31-rc5 mainline kernel?
