as far as I know IBM discourages mixing driver/firmware "major number" mismatches. Which btw is exactly the reason we didn't update the driver; it would require a lot of people to upgrade firmware during a security update with no way to fall back :( That is understandable. I will see if its possible to downgrade the firmware to match the driver. Thanks. Once the BIOS was flashed back to version 5.10.21 the current kernel works fine without complaint. Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem persists. The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/ |
