The recent kernel updates caused all sorts of disasters. I think I've narrowed this down to a single change in the module loader that meant if you had a deprecated module option in your config, the module would fail to load. I've built some kernels with that change backed out, they're currently at http://people.redhat.com/davej/kernels/Fedora/FC3/ (FC2 ones to follow if this all works out) If you've had any of the recent strange things like various devices disappearing/not working, please give these a try, and let me know if they fix your problems. If they do, I'll get them out as proper updates soon. thanks, Dave
