I looked at the build log from the autobuilder, and it shows the patch being applied. I looked at the patch itself and it looks correct, and I took a look at the unpacked source from linux-source-2.6.26 2.6.26-17, and it contains the fix. Only suggestion I can come up with is to make sure your initrd has been properly regenerated by running: mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-2-s390 2.6.26-2-s390 -- dann frazier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
