Did this work for you with 2.2.0pre4 or any other recent 2.1.x kernel ?

I'm currently running 2.2.0pre4 on my machine and it works without problems
for me - if it fails with 2.2.0pre6 and worked before this is probably the
kernel causing problems and we should perhaps wait for the "real" 2.2.0 one
to be released or at least until 2.2.0pre7.

Sorry, I'm very busy until Jan 20 (next Wednesday) so I can't have a more
detailed look at this.
