merge 345958 345914 severity 345958 grave thanks Hi, FWIW, this problem also occurs on my machine (LinuxCertified LC2210D laptop w/ Intel 82852/855GM chipset). Running the X server causes it to segfault, and it doesn't release the keyboard/console, so I have to reboot forcefully (Ctrl-Alt-SysRq-B). Downgrading to 6.8.2 fixes the problem.
I'm escalating this bug to grave 'cos it "makes the package in question unusable or mostly so" (http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer). Relevant packages: ii debconf 1.4.67 Debian configuration management system ii laptop-detect 0.12.1 attempt to detect a laptop ii libc6 2.3.5-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and Timezone ii libgcc1 4.0.2-5 GCC support library ii libxau6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-1 X Authentication library ii libxdmcp6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-1 X Display Manager Control Protocol library ii mdetect 0.5.2.1 mouse device autodetection tool ii xlibs 6.9.0.dfsg.1-1 X Window System client libraries metapackage ii xserver-common 6.9.0.dfsg.1-1 files and utilities common to all X servers ii zlib1g 1.2.3-9 compression library - runtime Hope this helps. --T -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
