Very valuable opinion ! The problem is : every time I looked at the kernel
changing log, I couldn't figure out which fix can do us good, especially
when it was indirectly related to our problem. Being afraid to change
to a new kernel because it may bring new problems rather solve our old ones,
I wouldn't change to a new kernel unless some report like yours could 
make sure our decision is correct.

Thanks for your opinion.
