My smolt profile can be found here:
http://www.smolts.org/client/show/pub_d3abe799-fc48-4b2e-9366-9cf035a6e7b4
Where should I put this information? In the wiki entry for the device
or is there some other way to attach files to the profile?
Just put the url in the comment field in the bug report and what
motherboard and or manufacture machine ( dell hp etc ) this is and the
output from lspci dont forget the dmesg output on the F11 installation.
