Check the upstream bugtracker, please attach the logfile instead of spamming the bugreport. Did it work with -1?
Comment by valentin mauro (valentinmauro) - Friday, 05 August 2011, 16:14 GMT
Tested again with 3.0-1... it doesn't seems to work. I'm sending the last 2 days of kernel.log and messages.log. Thanks in advance (PD: excuse my poor self-studied english)

Worked changing the defeault module with a patched version as seen on http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=34281 , on Fri, 22 Jul 2011 05:16:23 +0000 and Fri, 05 Aug 2011 12:58:35 +0000 commentaries. Thanks for all the trouble.
