Well, the thing is, they do fix the problem. Or at least they hide it very

Hi Nick,
I'll build a kernel with your patch and report

know if you want me to run some other tests or give some more info to help
solve this one.
Kernel config follows (compiled with gcc-3.4.4 on debian)...
Best regards, thanks

I would like to know if there is any support in the 2.4.x kernels for

Can someone point me for any patch or driver available for the 2.4
