Nice detective work. Does 3.3.y from experimental behave the same way? If so, please send a summary of the symptoms to linux-...@vger.kernel.org, cc-ing either me or this bug log so we can track it. Be sure to mention: - steps to reproduce, expected result, actual result, and how the difference indicates a bug (should be simple enough in this case) - how reproducible this is (80% of the time? 100%?) - a full "dmesg" output from booting and reproducing the bug, as an attachment or link - "acpidump" output, as another attachment or link - which kernel versions you have tried and what happened with each - any other weird symptoms or workarounds - what kind of debugging you'd be able to do to track this down --- e.g., can you test patches? - a link to http://bugs.debian.org/665493 for the backstory If we're lucky, someone might come up with commands to run or a patch to try to track this down further. Hope that helps, Jonathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
