I'm confused here, I'm afraid. I don't know what the 'kotd' kernel is at all and I'm not sure which you mean by 'regular' and vanilla'? As I said in my original message, I am using the SuSE kernel 2.6.11.4-21.7-default
I call regular kernel, the kernel included in the SuSE package. The vanilla kernel is the Linus Torvalds kernel found at kernel.org The kotd kernel is the SuSE "kernel of the day" found at ftp.suse.com.
You say SuSE have discovered the problem. You mean they have a solution? What is it? Is there an SDB entry? Do I need to do a YOU update or something? I don't understand how this fits in with still having to manually edit the modules list!???
I didn't get a new reply from SuSe nor see a fix on their site.
Thanks and regards, Dave
Michel.
