Are you sure about that? Would you mind testing beta5 again? We're trying to decide which kernel to use, they all have problems:
3.0 -- Crash with cifs mounts. This is a CIFS/AUFS bug. So 3.0 is out.
2.6.39.3 --- Intel ironlake graphics have problems. I had reported that radeon graphics had problems, but that was my mistake. Screen energy saver problem.
2.6.38.8 --- I've had a kernel oops at shutdown, but have not been able to reproduce. The USB related oops you had, Which seems to affect several kernels: http://lists.debian.org/debian-kernel/2 ... 00489.html Maybe even 2.6.39.3.
I deleted my old beta 5 save file and created a new one.

approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.

I plugged in 6 flash drives and nothing bad happened (sdh1 is a
sandisk cruz that somehow comes up with sr1 optical too).
I'll use this for a day or two and report back if anything bad does
happen.
EDIT: I let it sit idle until the screen saver kicked in and then moved the mouse and the screen came back on, I think the problem I had with it before may have been on my nvidia pc but not sure about that.
