Survey: Linux kernel quality

An option to add comments would be nice.
I've encountered two kernel bugs recently, but both on friends systems.
One was Fedora Core, where after upgrading from 2.6.15 to 2.6.17 (IIRC) suspend to disk no longer worked from within X (would resume to text mode).
The other was a freshly installed OpenSuSE 10.1, where the KDE TV application would just hang in D-State.

Now that I think of it I remember a third bug, where wpa_supplicant just fails if I add the wireless interface (ipw2200) into a bridge. I guess I should report that last one (or at least verify if this is still the case with a bleeding-edge kernel).
