This is a follow-on request to bug 146460. Removing dependency, though.
Larry Troan, in response to comment #8, there's no need to make this bug depend on bug 146460. This report is about a short-coming in the U6 beta kernel, which already includes the updated IPMI support. This report is legitimately a U6 respin candidate, but it still needs appropriate approvals (from Eng, QA, PM).
Adding appropriate management to cc: list.
Patch posted for RHEL3 U6.
A fix for this problem has just been committed to the RHEL3 U6 patch pool this evening (in kernel version 2.4.21-35.EL).
