Is it the case that the patch must be applied to the kernel? I don't think that patching the kernel will happen, as we are to close to release for the kernel team to consider new patches for the kernel. If there is a way to patch toshset, then that might possible and I could help with incorporating the patch and uploading if you can test. Regards, -Roberto -- Roberto C.
