Marc,

Thanks for the patch!  I'm happy to take it into my test kernels and
to champion it for RHEL4.  But, I need a little more of your help.
Would you mind opening a bugzilla for this issue?

Please open a bugzilla and let me know what its number is (or assign
it to me).  Thanks!

John

P.S.  Go ahead and attach your patch to the bugzilla as well!

Extra info: this patch is now working on my ASUS A8N-VM CSM motherboard with an
AMD64 3500+ (in 32 bits mode).

I can confirm the box booted successfully with your kernel
(kernel-2.6.9-32.EL.jwltest.115.i686) and is working correctly.

I will let this box run for a few weeks and see if it keeps running. I keep you
posted.
Comment 6 Joe Pruett 2006-02-20 16:19:34 UTC 
given how late this bug was created, i doubt this is going to make it into
update 3, is it?
Comment 7 John W. Linville 2006-02-20 16:35:25 UTC 
No, this is far too late for U3.
Comment 9 Marc Ketel 2006-03-09 19:41:41 UTC 
Hi John,

It seems that the patch is working fine. The machine is working nonstop without
trouble.
Comment 10 Jason Baron 2006-03-17 16:51:54 UTC 
committed in stream U4 build 34.4. A test kernel with this patch is available
from http://people.redhat.com/~jbaron/rhel4/
