Package: powertpo Version: powertop Severity: important Powertop 1.11 (Debian Squeeze) has never worked after the kernel update. (to 2.6.39-bpo.2-amd64)
At first I had the "segmentation fault problem" as already reported here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=610101 recently I have received an acpi update, in fact things changed, but powertop keeps not working. After collecting data it simply freezes without giving any error nor showing the "segmentation fault" message anymore so I suppose it is a different error. The terminal window stops working right after showing the data collected (which is reasonable) the fact is it does not get updated. It freezes. Even by "forcing" the refresh (by pressing R) nothing changes. It gets stuck in that way: http://i41.tinypic.com/3rl08.png Moreover, the only thing working in that terminal windows is the carriage return, which has the following effect, this is the windows after about 10 "carriage returns": http://i39.tinypic.com/72r9kp.png you may press whatever you want, nothing is displayed. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.3 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.39-bpo.2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
