Quoting Bakul Shah <bakul@bitblocks.com> (from Mon, 15 May 2006  
16:28:12 -0700):

Can you please do a binary search for the commit which breaks this? Go  
to a 2 week old current and see if the problem is still there. If it  
isn't, the problem appeared in the last two weeks, so update to an one  
week old current (and so on). I think only the kernel needs to be  
updated.

Bye,
Alexander.
