Hi, I tried with the given kernel and the result is: - exactly the same symptons as in 2.6.8 - the backported kernel is built with gcc 4.0.2 (not sure about the subdigits) which are not part of Sarge, making building of additional modules impossible. Such a backported kernel should be built with gcc from Sarge (IMHO). -- and I know it's an unrelated comment :-)
And to come back to your point on filing a separate bug for 2.6.8, I just remember that I clearly said in my first bug report that I need actually a fix for 2.4.x because of other dependencies; I only tried 2.6.8 because I was asked to...
