I had a similar problem but for me it was a problem with reiserfsprogs, not the kernel. Initial install was done using 3.6.8 and like you, I had the same problems, finally I got rid of 3.6.8 and emerged 3.6.4-r1. With 3.6.4-r1 everything works fine without any other changes, so I added reiserfsprogs to /etc/portage/package.mask and have sailing along ever since. I guess at some point I am going to have to try one of the newer versions but I have not had time / will power to do it yet.

I posted, and while no solution was found, others mentioned the same problem. I just tried 2.4.23 and it also does not work. Since there is an exploit now I have to figure out a way to upgrade, so I am still seeking solutions if anyone has heard of any. Maybe the 2.6 kernel fixes the problem? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
