Package: linux-source-2.6.13 Version: 2.6.13-1 Severity: normal *** Please type your report below this line ***
I tried compiling a laptop kernel from the linux-source-2.6.13 2.6.13-1. Unlike the debian precompiled kernel I tried the most agressive preemption option. The resulting kernel worked for some time, but then I installed the xfree synaptics driver. >From then on, the process writing "mem" to the /sys/power/state would stay in uninterriptible sleep until system shutdown (did not try to go to runlevel 2 or something like that). Simply restarting X did not help. A kernel without preemption or X without synaptics driver works. The machine is an old Dell laptop with BX chipset. I am not sure if the Debian patches affect this behavior in any way. I will try to test with a vanilla kernel later.
