How reproducible is the problem? With how much certainty can you say the problem is introduced by newer kernels? e.g. If the problem occurs most of the time with 2.5.15.1 but it stops happending after switching back to 2.6.13.3, you can be pretty sure. Can you also please post dmesg of 2.6.13.3? -- tejun
