[cobalt-users] WARNING: Cobalt RaQ2 Update 3.0

["John Burgess" <john.burgess@xxxxxxxxxx>]

After a week or so with this update on 2 of my RAQ2's, I have found an
apparent problem with the kernel.  Immediately following the upgrade, users
(customers) began complaining of intermittent problems
connecting/authenticating to the pop server, getting incorrect logon errors.

The kernel logger is also logging messages every few minutes like so to the
point that is all that dmesg reports after a short while.

Of course this behavior was not present before the update.

I have restored the kernel files (/boot) directory to a pre-upgrade version
and that has aparrently taken care of the issue.

I will refrain from making any comments about Cobalt's ability to deliver
other than hobby grade products.
