Brian, do you have any idea why Fedora 13 (current kernel 2.6.34.6-54)
is not affected by this bug?

I have been wondering for some times now, why i855 notebooks were
incompatible with 9.10, 10.04, 10.10, unless doing some workaround, but
installed fine on Fedora 13 (I haven't tried any previous release).

Isn't the kernel common to all the distributions?
