OK, last fix to olympic enabled a subtle bug to surface when
network_monitor was enabled.The bug has been there all the
time, but
before the last patch the problem (an out of bounds mmio
write) was ignored.
I'm going to wait a little while
before sending this one off, with all the patches floating
around at the moment, the previous updates haven't fully
percolated into the final kernel releases. Once its there, I'll
update with the patch. If you've having the problem, simply
turn off the network_monitor mode in the interim.
Still have the issue with the cardbus adapters on certain thinkpads, this is not a pleasant one to hunt down. I don't have a thinkpad to emulate the problem with and working with somebody who does via email is tough. I'm still not convinced that the cardbus controller/subsytem isn't to blame somewhere along the line.
