I have started to get the power problems after i switched to 2.6.14. Since i
purchased a zd1211 wireless card, I started from the "oh dear, the driver for
this card is totally fscked" but then i remembered this thread and decided to
try 2.6.12.
So far, I have been using debian kernels, and have had not a single problem
with 2.6.12 in a very long time, so i have a strong believe it has been
introduced with the 2.6.12 -> 2.6.14, but that is not saying much, I believe.
So far it has started happening mostly when I do very intensive tasks, like
(mostly) transfering files, at 2.2Mps, so that is why i thought it was related
to the zd1211 driver, but tonight it also happened when transfering files to
my mp3 player, although i got an Oops, not a shutdown, which of course I dod
not copy :(
I will try 2.6.12 with the zd1211 and see if it still happens.
Cheers,
