If I ever get my powerpc development system up and running (I trashed my linux /etc with a typo, so I'm reinstalling sarge on that system) I'll see what I can do about them. In the meantime it sounds like it's time for another go 'round on my install machine (which may or may not go away late September). I downgraded the bug report on the kernel, but then I realized you might not be using the kernel I thought. Did you install 2.6.15 or 2.6.16? 2.6.16 is the one that has the issues.
