Well, I've been running the kernel since Sunday and have had no problems 
with my normal work mix of browsing, browsing the internet, video 
editing, listening to music and building software. I'm now running a 
kernel that build with the new patches 1 and 4 from yesterday (plus the 
original 1, 2 and 5). All seems OK so far, including a couple of resumes 
from suspend to disk.
