Nope, due to: 1) no reproducer and 2) the "next" EL kernel will have a new major version of the driver code making it quite pointless to invest effort/time in the 2.x driver. If more information surfaces (maybe in this thread) and/or the problem persists with the 3.x driver then a bz will most likely be created. /Peter
