well, it could be any. 2.6.20.1 is very old, even for the 2.6.20 branch.
A few hundreds of bugs have been fixed since. If you don't need to stick
to 2.6.20, you should try 2.6.27.10. If you need to stick to 2.6.20 for
whatever reason, please at least try with 2.6.20.21 (the latest 2.6.20
patch). Even with that, there's no guarantee that the present bug will
be fixed though.
