For the stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version
2.6.18.dfsg.1-18etch1.
In addition to these fixes, this update also incorporates changes from the
upcoming point release of the stable distribution.
Some architecture builds were not yet available at the time of DSA-1494-1.
This update to DSA-1494 provides linux-2.6 packages for these remaining
architectures, as well as additional binary packages that are built
from source code provided by linux-2.6.
The old stable distribution (sarge) is not affected by this problem.
The unstable (sid) and testing distributions will be fixed soon.
We recommend that you upgrade your linux-2.6, fai-kernels, and
user-mode-linux packages.
