Dapper is 2.6.15, Edgy 2.6.17 and Feisty will be 2.6.20.
The web site you gave says:
* 2.6.9 to 2.6.16.28: OK
* KO 2.6.17.1 to 2.6.17.7: NOT recommended with EciAdsl (uhci bug in
kernel)
* OK 2.6.17.8 to 2.6.17.14: OK
* KO 2.6.18 to 2.6.19.x: FAILED to synchronize
I'd take that to mean dapper is okay, Edgy unknown (not sure which
2.6.17 we ship) and Feisty unknown but not looking probably. To be
honest it looks like a very tempremental driver :(
