Perhaps but you don't have tested the latest version of the pwc driver. The
latest version is not 10.0.4. And the failed message, with the version
included in the fedora core 4, is the first version released on public
mailing list.

YES BUT your little line are already included in the release past 10.0.4 AND
i don't use io_remap_page_range() but remap_pfn_range() which is more correct
because the memory is not mapped other io device. So please report bugs
against the latest version for now it's 10.0.7a. Thanks.

Some users can have an image, some not. Perhaps it's a problem with the
version of gnomemeeting. Try to post a bug on their mailing list.
