I have test packages for dapper to see if this "fix" works. It's not really a fix. I forward ported the sk98lin driver from breezy into dapper, and disabled the sky2 driver.

If you would like to test this for me, there are -386 and -k7 packages available at:

http://people.ubuntu.com/~bcollins/kernels/sk98lin-dapper/

Since this is not an ABI bump, this should work with current linux-restricted-modules and friends.

Sorry, I removed the -686 kernel without thinking and don't want to go through a build again. You just need to test the -386 image anyway. Test -k7 if you have an AMD and just feel the need.

WARNING: These are not well tested packages. There's a lot of fixes in there totally unrelated to sky2/sk98lin. It should work fine, but use at your own risk. Make sure you have an alternate way to boot to an older kernel. This will replace your currently installed kernel.
