Hi, Edward.

This is great. I'm keeping mom in CC and she is pleasantly surprised
that her case got attention from developers. She wasn't expecting one
single case to be treated seriously by important people (in her
words---and mine too).

Ooops. Sorry I listed two issues from different computers (yes, I am
seeing many issues with the computers that I have at my disposal). The
ones that I should have had listed relevant to this notebook are:

* https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41622
* https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41722

Issue

* https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41132

should not have been mentioned here. Too many issues and I got confused. Sorry.

Well, as you mention, yes, I have one case of "nobody cared" in this
very desktop (this one I didn't file on bugzilla) that I am using
right now (and I have to boot with irqpoll), but I guess that this is
another issue entirely. If you could help me with this "nobody cared"
thing, then I will be glad to provide copious amounts of data. :)


Thanks,
