The reason for asking was about the possibility that the fix was  
included in 2.6.20.  That patch was included in -mm, and maybe  
included in the full 2.6.20 code.  I was hoping someone could confirm  
their experience.  The 2 boxes I have with this card are both prod  
servers, in hard to access locations.  I'm only going to get 1 shot at  
this, and one is a email gateway.


The real trick would be trying the 2.6.20+ kernel set from debian  
testing, so that I could just pull up smoothly.  I just don't have the  
luxury of that, right now.  I might be able to get approval to take  
one of the 2 down for a few hours, to test on it, but.. it'll be  
interesting.
