Do you, or anyone else, remember which firmwares have seen this, or
other, problems? I have checked, and I'm running 4.22.33, which looks
to be the most recent in the 4.22.xx line (patch 121683-06). There are
also two patches in the 142700 line, which provide OBP 4.30.xx.
I'm trying to get a line on 142700-02 at the moment, but just wanted
to see if anyone knew of versions that did or didn't work. Thanks.
