Ok, at least frugalware uses the exact same version as Debian unstable. They also don't contain any special patch [1] regarding this problem, at least I don't recognize one as such. The only thing that could make the difference, is the kernel then, imho. Maybe it was a kernel issue right from the beginning. What kernel do you use? Could you test with a 2.6.20 vanilla kernel?
