Re: "pud"?

Ian,

Thanks for the swift reply - I guess this means I am knackered unless I return 
to an earlier kernel. Do you know what kernels work (2.6.10 and earlier?) - 
the irony is I went to huge effort to update to 2.6.12 just to install 
comedi... oh well.

Do you know if anyone is working on a fix or a work around?

Thanks,

SA
