[K12OSN] New HP clients kernel panic...

[Shawn Powers]

Well, the upgrade did not make a difference, it still kernel panics at the
same place.  The link you gave me to the old kernel (a much newer kernel
than I had found) works well.  So version vmlinuz-2.6.16-2.k12ltsp.5.0.0
does work, but the current version and the update you linked below do not
work.

I'll happily test any other versions, just let me know.  I'll also try to
get more error messages, but I'm not sure how to best do that.

Thanks a ton for your help, it's truly appreciated,
-Shawn (who is in no rush for a new kernel -- this one is working fine)

Pretty much everything I say, do, think, or imply with punctuation should
