CentOS - Jan 2008 - MySQL issues with kernel-2.6.18-53.1.6.el5.x86_64.rpm

Hi all!

Just a word of warning: after updating a few of our x86_64 based web
frontend boxes to the new kernel, we began to get weird MySQL
timeouts. The problem went away again when we downgraded to the
previous kernel-2.6.18-53.1.6.el5.x86_64.rpm

regards,
  Bent Terp

Your subject line says kernel-2.6.18-53.1.6.el5.x86_64.rpm causes issues
with MySQL, but the body of your message says that is the version of
kernel that you had to revert to to solve the problems!

Could you clarify which kernel version gives problems and which doesn't?

Cheers
Tony
