The latest patch to fix it. http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=134445489307060&w=2 I'm not really sure I agree this is a blocker. It's been seen on exactly 1 machine, which had a BIOS set to a crazy date in the future. This isn't really that big of a deal. The reality is that you're only going to hit this bug if you've set your BIOS year to greater than the year 2400. It will obviously be fixed in mainline, but IMO, it's not a critical fix. P. The patch is queued up in tip now. I'll try and find it amongst the forest of Ingo and put it in rawhide/f18. I was out yesterday and in the meantime the commit wound up in Linus' tree. This is fixed with kernel-3.6.0-0.rc3.git1.1.fc18 kernel-3.6.0-0.rc4.git2.1.fc18 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 18. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/kernel-3.6.0-0.rc4.git2.1.fc18 Package kernel-3.6.0-0.rc4.git2.1.fc18: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 18 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing kernel-3.6.0-0.rc4.git2.1.fc18' as soon as you are able to, then reboot. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-13608/kernel-3.6.0-0.rc4.git2.1.fc18 then log in and leave karma (feedback). kernel-3.6.0-0.rc6.git0.2.fc18 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 18. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/kernel-3.6.0-0.rc6.git0.2.fc18 kernel-3.6.0-0.rc6.git0.2.fc18 has been pushed to the Fedora 18 stable repository.
