Nate, can you be a bit specific for a) what GPE is, b) what the problem is, c) what to look for (any test procedures?) and d) which HP laptop models might be affected? I do have an Omnibook vt6200 (P-IV 1.8G) running 6-STABLE and a new HP 6715b (Tur-X2 TL-60) running 7-RC1 (currently installing on this, OS is not yet fully set up). If I knew what to look for, I might test your patches (at least on the 7-RC1 version). Volker
