I found the patch location, it was off by about -30 lines after the 
other patches, and applied them.  It builds now, but still doesn't 
work, very slow screen updates and no video in tvtime.  It works 
properly with 2.6.11, 2.6.11.1, and 2.6.11.2.  As I didn't have the 
card until 2.6.11 was out, I should back up to the last rc4-RT, and 
see if this card will work with that. At least that will narrow the 
guilty patchset down a wee bit.  I'll try that later today if the 
honeydo's don't get in the way.

I noted last night too, that while my scanner worked, it was gawdawful 
slow at retrieving the data over the usb when running at a measly 
300dpi, 3 to 4 minutes for an 8.5x11, 23 MB of data (according to 
xsane) scan.  IIRC Its been only 45-50 seconds in past times.  So 
that may indicate a usb slowdown too, in the read path only.  The usb 
printer in 1440x1440 color was about its usual speed, needing a 
surveyer to measure page ejection progress. :)

That printer does very very nice indeed color work, but in those 
modes, theres no way to convince the frogs that an Epson C82 is 
faster than watching paint dry.  10 to 20 minutes a page depending on 
content.

OTOH, my output, after tweaking a few things, was a hell of a lot more 
brilliant than the page I scanned in!  (Plus the award recipients 
name is now spelled correctly, the reason for that little 3 hour 
exersize, ain't the gimp wunnerful?)

I don't believe I'm seeing any evidence of that here.  OTOH, I don't 
run sensors very often when gkrellm is running.  Or are there other 
processes accessing through that bus that wouldn't play well?
