the one thing I can say is that I had a "fix" for this in the RH kernel
for a while, but it broke with newer bioses. End result was that there
was a working kernel for either old or for new bioses; the existing
linux worked well for newer bioses so I just dropped the patch entirely.
(Several machines only come with newer bioses and most people with old
bioses had updated anyway, probably for y2k issues :)
