Jes nothing is working but a patch:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/24127/
and after that disable Ipv6 with :
sudo su -
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6
add :
ipv6.disable=1
To check if Ipv6 is disabled :
sudo ip a | grep inet6
If there is a output then Ipv6 is not disabled.
If you know how to patch the jaunty kernel please help me, from the next kernel is not necessary to patch, because the code is in the 2.6.29.2 tree. So the disable option in the /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6 is normally working.
In the kernel tree from jaunty 2.6.28.2 (witch I have) this option is not working without the kernel patch I gave as first link.
There is also a guy who made a nasty, but I guess working, work around.

But this is not the best and most beautiful way.
Sow hope you or somebody else will help me out with the kernel patch thingy, I give you the patch link, please help me to patch!!!!
This is once again, one of those, "Why on earth did they 'fix' something that was not broken?" moments.
New "features" that is for our own good should by default come disabled with the option to enable it, and not being force fed to us. Think PulseAudio.
@SnappyU
My two cents man!!
Ridiculous why its not easy to enable or disable ipv6 or pulseaudio for example. Finally the nvidia support is alright. Programs load much easier etc. Its a good distro except for the Ipv6 and apache.
I had the .PHTML horror also again, and its not fixable with the normal ways.
So except for a few things its great, but the few things need to be sorted out.
Bump.....
ok,now how do you apply this patch?
