This is beyond me, but with more context and a better subject line, you have a MUCH better chance of the busy people that offer their time to work with the hardware/drivers in question will review your request and possibly offer a response, or notice the need to file a PR. I don't have Greg's 'howto get good responses from the list' monthly post handy, but take a look in Google for how to submit a question to a mailing list to get a good response. Even a subject line of "Hardware _insert-vendor-product_ causes fault on boot" would help attract attention of people that selflessly claim responsibility for it's operation (and therefore communication with the people that take care of it's lower-level workings). I don't personally recognize many of the drivers in question, so hopefully someone else who does know will help out. Steve
