ok....

I have two kernels now which differ in exactly this:
--- confi.40.4+1436     2006-10-05 16:36:49.000000000 +0200
+++ confi.40.4+1530     2006-10-05 17:30:08.000000000 +0200

I had a strange lockup which looked quite similar to the one I had with java
while compiling the kernel (just as it was finished) but could not do
anything about it because the keyboard was dead...

that time I had a 2.6.19-rc1 WITH hdaps running

but I don't see any error messages in the logs...

I will try with the 1436 kernel next and boot the 1530 afterwards
