Sorry for the years of silence.  Some kind person found the kernel bugs
that were no longer associated to the linux-2.6 source package and
reassigned them to make them visible again.

Do you still have access to this hardware?  If so, can you still
reproduce this bug?  (A log of the failure would be very useful.)  If
not, do you remember when it was fixed?

Thanks for your work,
Jonathan
