Thanks, Rik!  It would also be useful to know the newest kernel you've
experienced this problem on, so we can rule out it having silently
gone away (though I don't think that's likely).

Now I've made a quick web search, and learned a little more.  If the
kernel you currently use is affected, could you try the following and
report back?
