The latest version I've tried that works fine is Linus' 2.6.31-rc3
with the latest commit being:

commit 35b5c55fee08e6e4001ba98060a2d0b82f70b5f4
Merge: e9e961c... b2dde6a...
Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Wed Jul 15 10:29:09 2009 -0700

I encountered the problem I described when I booted:

2.6.31-rc3-next-20090716

Odd...have you (i.e. Noah) been using -next trees all along? What was
