It will fix your problems. http://cvs.archlinux.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/kernels/kernel26/?cvsroot=Current&only_with_tag=TESTING http://bugs.archlinux.org/index.php?do=details&id=3040 greetings tpowa -- Tobias Powalowski Archlinux Package Maintainer (tpowa) http://www.archlinux.org [EMAIL PROTECTED]
