No, I tried with my own 2.6 kernel (I really don't want to use the "FAILSAFE" kernel that comes with mindi). > >OTOH, I couldn't apply the patch suggested by Thierry, because it > >didn't apply cleanly... :-( > > Sorry, I had made the diff against an older version of mindi (the > patch applies, though, with an offset of 9 lines, so I had thought it > was OK.) If it has to apply perfectly (which is definitely cleaner), > here it is again... No, it didn't have just an offset. It was rejected by my patch command when I tried applying it. I would have no problems with a fuzz or offset. Oh, BTW, the patch that you sent this time needed to have the file mindi_patched renamed, but this was a minor point. > >I think, BTW, that we could merge the bugs 324302 and 329246.

I will report back with the results that I get. I am using, BTW, my own 2.6 kernel.
