Hi,
the plan is to do a kernel update friday or monday (depending on the
amount of things that turn up in this testing). There is a 424 kernel in
the testing dir on the ftp repository and on
http://people.redhat.com/arjanv/2.6
Just tried the new 424 kernel and it has PCMCIA problems on my ThinkPad
A22p that did not occur with 2.6.5-1.358 or 2.6.6-1.422. When manually
ejecting cards, 424 produces the following error messages on all Xterms:
kernel: unregister_netdevice: waiting for eth0 to become free.
Usage count = 1
and then there was no apparent way of restarting any networking or
getting the prompts back. A shutdown failed to complete as systemlogger
just kept repeating the above error message (pulled power and ejected
battery to eventually shut it off).
Also, due to the above pcmcia problems, I was only able to test APM
suspend once but it did work using the method described at:
