Hi all, yesterday I did an "apt-get dist-upgrade" on my NSLU2 running Debian lenny (armel version). Now I have kernel 2.6.26-1-ixp4xx.
I'm using an USB-to-Serial adapter based on the pl2303 chipset, which has been working flawlessly with all previous versions of Debian I had installed on that NSLU2. Now I get repeated errors on this interface, with error messages in syslog like these: Aug 30 20:20:06 slug kernel: [43051075.690000] ------------[ cut here ]------------ Aug 30 20:20:06 slug kernel:
