Ubuntu Patch for P965 Motherboards

Looks like a patch has been commited to the Ubuntu development branch. This is good news because it atleast means that we should be able to install Ubuntu Linux 6.10 when it is released on a P965 based motherboard with the JMicron chip.

Also if this Kernel gets backported to the Dapper branch then we maybe able to create a custom install cd with the new kernel, and any other custom packages you may want. Then get dapper running on the new system.

If you are one of the few people who went to all the trouble of using one of the work arounds to get Ubuntu Dapper running on your P965 motherboard, then you should be able to use a backported kernel to support it.
