Heh. I don't think they're *that* bad, actually; I'm almost certain that
the bug must be in the kernel drivers rather than in hardware. I haven't
got round to trying it with 2.6 to see if that clears it up.

My Disgo setup is a little complicated since it has a VFAT filesystem
containing a loop-mounted ext2 filesystem containing a cfs filesystem,
which tends to confuse issues like this somewhat.

Cheers,
