Actually no, please dont -- I just want to see NORMAL dmesg output WITHOUT ANY DEBUG enabled.

Also, I am entirely *not* interested in seeing output from your 2.6.31 pre-release kernel.  If you can't reproduce this on a stable kernel, please say so.  If you're only seeing this on pre-release kernels, then I can debug this myself.

Oh, really??  Top five??  That's so cool!  Can you show me a link so I can see this for myself?  :-D

I appreciate the thanks, and the recognition -- that's awesome!
