Bug#277835: 2.6.12 appears ok

[Neil Pilgrim <debian.bugs@kepier.clara.net>]

Hi,

I've finally had a chance to try the 2.6.12 kernel, via the 
linux-image-2.6.12-1-686_2.6.12-10_i386.deb from testing, on this 
otherwise sarge system.

This works fine, at least with regard to mounting my usb stick. I will 
test 2.6.12 further (I see it is actually based on 2.6.12.6), although 
I'm wary of using a less-tested/more-recent version, even if it is off 
the 'stable' branch of 2.6.12.

With regard to obtaining an updated 2.6.8 version for sarge, I'm 
certainly willing to test a slightly 'tweaked' version, but not really 
able to set this up myself here. Of course, if 2.6.12 (or .14) is 
actually considered 'safe', then I'd be inclined to just recommend that 
instead, if people other than myself do have this problem - although 
that's probably not really a line that debian could/should officially 
take, I suspect :)

Thanks for your help,
