Created attachment 75779 [details] dmesg output
2.6.13.5 works fine, 2.6.14-rc1 doesn't work.
Please reproduce on the latest kernel (currently gentoo-sources-2.6.15)
same problem on 2.6.15
sorry for not responding so long, but I am currently not at the office, and I can't easily reboot the machine, becase it is needed 24/6
Please file this as an upstream bug at http://bugzilla.kernel.org and post the new URL here.
