I now have tested several kernel versions on the sidux box (using the sidux kernels):
2.6.22.10-rc1-slh-smp-1 works. There are no locking/timeout problems. With all other versions the problem occurs: 2.6.23.14-slh-smp-1 2.6.24-2.6.24.5.slh.1-sidux-686 2.6.25-0.slh.12-sidux-686 -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
