That's annoying, because we got that device working... but it looks like I dropped the bug fix from the Debian package of 2.6.39. However the bug fix will be back again in Linux 3.0. > I then disconnected the usb modem/router and connected the PC Port. > Again, it failed.

It shouldn't be, but you would need to upgrade initramfs-tools and linux-base as well as the linux-image-* package. > And finally, how do I go about using 3.0-rc6? You would first have to add a line to /etc/apt/sources.list referring to a mirror of the 'experimental' suite. Please can you test the attached patch against the experimental version, following the instructions at: <http://kernel-handbook.alioth.debian.org/ch-common-tasks.html#s-common-official>.
