    Just booted to .3-mm4 for the first time, already found 2 or 3 bugs:

    - Two old bugs still there: in both radeonfb and vgafb, the lines above
      the first one printed after the fb takeover are white (vgafb) or
    mangled (radeonfb).

    - New radeonfb bug: in the fb console, linefeed doesn't clear the new
    line., i.e the three lines

    ABCDEFGHI
    JKLMNO
    PQR

    would look like:

    ABCDEFGHI
    JKLMNO
    PQRMNOGHI

    - ipv6.ko doesn't work:

    ipv6: Unknown symbol sysctl_optmem_max
    ipv6: Unknown symbol sysctl_optmem_max
    ipv6: Unknown symbol sysctl_optmem_max
    ipv6: Unknown symbol sysctl_optmem_max

    The symbol is listed in System.map however:
    /boot/System.map-2.6.3-mm4:c0301ff0 D sysctl_optmem_max

    Nothing serious, or as bad as .2-mm1 was.

    Thanks to everyone involved in making it, hope this helps!
