Are you talking about me? ;-)
I put the first system with the patched patch to work last week. It
definitely fixes the problems I had with the first patch (HEAD, I
suppose), as the interface attaches fine now (even a lot faster than
before).
I cannot say if the actual issue I had with 7.1-stable has gone away, too,
because this only occured after a longer time of operation. However, up to
now everything looks nice.
