Package: acpidump Version: 20131115-1.1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, *** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? * What was the outcome of this action? * What outcome did you expect instead? *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** This link was presented to me in the acpi-kernel-documentation: https://01.org/linux-acpi/documentation/overriding-dsdt but I am unable to make an ACPI-dump from my testing-machine. Installation was reported here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=733337 I switched from XFCE back to GNOME today and I think the 'sort folders before files'-option of the file-manager is not working here. <code> andreas@s5:~$ sudo aptitude install acpidump The following NEW packages will be installed: acpica-tools{a} acpidump 0 packages upgraded, 2 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2 not upgraded.
