Ok, what i know for sure is that in the stable series it broke in 2.4.23,
2.4.22 was ok. For the 2.5 kernels, 2.5.57 was ok and 2.6.0-test5 was
already broken. More testing would need to wait: away at a conference
until end of next week, sorry.

I cannot right now, see abiove ;-)
Ok, you mean the kernel patches, right? I would gladly do that with my
current debian experimental 4.3 XFree packages. Is that what you mean?
