I have applied the patch against 2.6.33-rc4, built and tested; it works as expected - great work!

We should get this to Dmitry (dot) Torokhov (at) gmail.com ASAP (if not already done) for a late pull request to Linus, for inclusion in 2.6.33-rc5, due in a week and CC stable (at) kernel.org in the patch email. The CC to stable will ensure it hits the 2.6.32 kernel series, which will be the baseline for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (though it may move to 2.6.33).

Until then, we can simply use the updated mainline kernels:

(if you have Nvidia or Radeon graphics hardware, enabling the Xorg-edgers PPA will get you better graphics support). Thanks, JM! Here is my 'Tested-by' support for any patch email:
