Ok, I'll post there. I was also thinking that this is a bug on radeon driver, 
but it only appears when I use this newer hotplug release.

Yes it does. The small patches are here:

SIS900 driver for the network adapter did not load. The problem with alsa oss 
emulation module is that it loads but the entry /dev/dsp does not appear 
until I remove the module and modprobe again. This may also be kernel bug, 
but again only appears with the newer hotpug release. I have not added any 
fields to usermap files for these modules.

Thanks, Sami
