Yeah, I'm using the current RHEL5 based kernel and yeah, it has some issues.  It isn't the OS Template's fault though... and this isn't the only OS Template that is affected by this bug.

The bug was reported by some Gentoo folks a while back... and we have been told it would be fixed in an upcoming kernel update... but I believe they have had two kernel updates since that have left it out.

Over the holiday break there was even some bickering on the bug report.  Here's the bug report:
