Yep, I forget exactly when, but it was a problem introduced by one
feature addition or another somewhere around 2.6.27 or .28.

Well, the latest kernel I had on my F10 machine was still giving me this 
problem, this appears to be 2.6.27.25. I upgraded to kernel.org kernels and 
the problem has dissappeared.
I know that distros back-port patches, what is important, is that 2.6.29.4 
appears to be the earliest stock kernel which has a fix.
