I will test it this evening (CET). Is it just a matter of installing the RPMs for the kernel?
Yes.
By the way, will this kernel be submitted to the standard OpenSUSE 11.1 repositories, so it will become available trough an update?
If it fixes anything, then yes, indeed :). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Why is this bug closed then :)
Because you didn't reply long enough (it's resolved as no-response). After you provide the info if it helps or not, reopen it of course. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I however tried the kernel that came through the regular update (2.6.27.19-3.2-default). And it made no difference with the previous one (2.6.27.7-9-default):
This won't help me much. Could you retry get the labs kernel? If it doesn't work, I'll move it somewhere else. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
