Thanks. As a matter of fact this is most certainly kernel-source-2.4.27 from Debian. This problem was recently fixed (as discussed in the mini-thread about how CML1 blows chunks.) For what it's worth to Google, kernel-tree-2.4.27-4 has just hit unstable (will reach mirrors by tomorrow) and should have fixed this problem. Sorry for the noise caused to LKML. -- Joshua Kwan
