Hi,

patching 2.6.1 to mm1 from A. Morton, the kernel oopses after connecting to my dsl provider:

yup, sorry. You'll need to revert

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.1/2.6.1-mm1/broken-out/check-for-truncated-modules.patch

Yes, this solved it. Thanks, also for including the big ALSA 1.0.1 patch and the nForce etherdeth driver in the mm kernels four the nForce users.
