Well, unfortunately, this kernel is unusable on my Acer Ferrari One.

First off, it hangs solid every time several seconds or at last a few
minutes after boot.  I haven't been able to collect any debug data from
it yet, but one of the symptoms is black screen with (unmovable) mouse
cursor (this only happens when X has been started, but the box hangs without
X too).

Second, the wireless is apparently unable to associate with the AP
(that 3.1-rc10 works with correctly on the same box).

Tomorrow I'll try to identify the offending commits.

Thanks,
Rafael
