Bug#493479: test build

hey Dave, I'm wondering if this is an occurrence of #494365. Can you test this build to see if it fixes this issue for you? http://people.debian.org/~dannf/bugs/494365/ Thanks for the test build. I just tried it, but the behavior remains unchanged: kernel freezes unless the boot

Bisecting. See http://kerneltrap.org/node/11753. OK, I bisected from 1 PM to 6 PM today. I ended up building 16 kernels which would have seemed like a LOT, except for how many I built on Saturday night and all day Sunday! I used my custom '.config', instead of the enormous Debian stock

Are there any Debian-specific changes to the HPET source code, or is the problem directly from upstream? No, there are no Debian-specific changes. But 2.6.26 uses the new rtc infrastructure, which may change things. OK, I read '/linux-source-2.6.26/Documentation/rtc.txt' and then
