I don't. I doubt the dmesg will be of significance, as I said they're never the
same.
However I've posted the dmesgs here [
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1457568 ] prior to asking for help in
LKML. Kernel version is Ubuntu's 2.6.32, not Vanilla.

I believe nothing significant can be extracted from them. Am I correct?
