Here's the announcement of the 2.6.27.17 kernel.

It reverts one patch in the 2.6.27.16 kernel release, which caused an
instant oops if you happened to have a laptop with a docking station.
Many thanks to David Engel for pointing out the problem.

I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.27.16 and 2.6.27.17

The updated 2.6.27.y git tree can be found at:
        git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.27.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
        http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2....

thanks,

greg k-h
