Not sure what caused it.
Comment 2 Stephane Gauthier 2011-11-03 15:11:02 UTC 
Getting the same on a RHEL6.1 x86_64 KVM guest... Any updates?

THanks,
Comment 3 Andrew Case 2011-11-03 19:27:11 UTC 
+1 for RHEL6.1 x86_64
Comment 4 Josh Boyer 2011-11-03 19:32:05 UTC 
For those of you seeing this with RHEL 6.x, you should really file a bug against the RHEL product family.

John, the 2.6.38 kernel is fairly stale in F15 now.  Are you seeing this with the latest 2.6.40.x updates?

Haven't seen it is a while Josh so could well be fixed in 2.6.40.x.
Comment 6 Dave Jones 2011-12-06 19:05:43 UTC 
reopen (or file new bug) if it reappears. thanks for the update.
