Package: kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686
Version: 2.4.27-6
Severity: normal
I upgraded from 'kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686_2.4.27-2_i386.deb'
to 'kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686_2.4.27-6_i386.deb', after which
my 56K external modem now tops off at about 1.5K a second, down
from it's old 5.5K.
When I downgrade to v2, the modem can do 5.5K again. I tested this
twice (with no other changes) to make sure. Sure enough,
downgrading the kernel seems to fix the modem, and upgrading
it slows it down.
If it matters, the modem's connected to '/dev/ttyS0'.

thanks for your feedback.
happy to hear that, we are anyway encouraging uses of the 2.6 kernel.
it is the default for the next d-installer release.
therefor closing.
