I can confirm that it does -- I was running 10.04 (which has 2.6.32 as 
standard), and had problems with my 1068E card. I manually installed the 
linux-image-2.6.35-21-server package for some other fixes to the RAID6 
error handling, and found that the 1068E card started working fine when 
I put it back in.

Interesting.... where might I find out more info about that? (trying to 
figure out if I should stay with .35 for now....)
