Sorry, cut and paste error, I did the cd before the bisect:

[root@Fedora-test git]# git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git linux-git-fresh [root@Fedora-test git]# cd linux-git-fresh/ [root@Fedora-test linux-git-fresh]# git bisect start [root@Fedora-test linux-git-fresh]# git bisect bad v2.6.15 [root@Fedora-test linux-git-fresh]# git bisect good v2.6.16 dab47a31f42a23d2b374e1cd7d0b797e8e08b23d was both good and bad

No, the problem was fixed in 2.6.16 and I'm trying to figure out what fixed it so that I can back-port the fix into a previous kernel version, so 2.6.16 is good and 2.6.15 is bad.
