(s/timesource/clocksource/)

Ok, some more tests:
2.6.22-rc4-686 (without any parameters): works (both on the console
and under X)
2.6.22-rc4-686 (with clocksource=pit): works on the console but
not under X
2.6.22-rc5-686 (without parameters): works on the console but
not under X
2.6.22-rc5-686 (with clocksource=pit): works (both on the console  
and under X)
2.6.22-rc6-686 (without parameters): works (both on the console  
and under X)
2.6.22-rc6-686 (with clocksource=pit): works (both on the console  
and under X)

(Without setting clocksource the laptop freezes each other minute and
doesn't reboot at least with some kernels but that's a different
problem.)

So the problem is -rc4 and -rc5 with/out the kernel parameter
"clocksource=pit" in combination with my laptop and X. Or something
else :-)

I guess we can close this bug as it's probably not
libio-multiplex-perl's fault.
 
Cheers,
gregor, considerning not building packages any more with -rc kernels
