(working) config for kernel 3.0

Dropbox and Amazon Cloud Reader works just fine on kernel 3.0, but the former does not work on 3.1-rc1 and 3.1-rc2, and the latter does not work on 3.1-rc2 (I no longer have a copy of the 3.1-rc1 build I did).

With Dropbox, ps reports that the daemon process is in an uninterruptible state, and it cannot be killed (even with kill -9). Setting SELinux to permissive does not affect things (and Dropbox works with SELinux set to enforcing with kernel 3.0).

With Cloud Reader, on Chrome, it does not display any book -- I perpetually get the "refreshing" icon.

Will attach kernel configurations (I keep the 3.0 and 3.1-rc2 configs as similar as possible, by using 'make oldconfig' on 3.0 with 3.1-rc2's .config.

Cloud Reader is stuck displaying a refresh icon, no matter how many times the page is refreshed

Cloud Reader: logout attempt

... and attempting to log out reveals that parts of Cloud Reader (and presumably Dropbox) somehow does not detect an internet connection
