Comment:
I'm still seeing this bug, though only testing intermittently (with
laptop mode off, I get to do real work :o)

Running kernel is 2.6.15-14-686, I don't use the ATi binary drivers, I
have ipw2200 but can remove that (wep140 is currently broken, it seems,
so I'm using the e1000). IBM Tpad R51. I'm willing to do whatever tests
are asked for.
