Hello Amit -- I think that bug is fixed in the post-2.6.9 patch I sent, 
please let me know if there's any other places that need to be fixed up. 
  Some of the stuff, such as power event notifiers, are intended to work 
independently of DPM (yes, I should probably split things up into 
separate patches, ugh).  Thanks,
