(Pleasee don't top-post.  See what a mess you've made!)

I don't think we've fixed all the bugs which people were reporting in this
thread.  Could people please retest 2.6.13-rc6 when it's out and generate
new reports for any remaining problems?  Via bugzilla.kernel.org would be
preferred (by me.  Otherwise tracking the status of these things is a
nightmare).

Thanks.

(And, unlike previous cycles, I'll be tracking these bugs into the 2.6.14
series, so nobody can hide!)

(As long as they're in bugzilla)
