That's theory. In practice, old machines get no longer supported... I submitted a bug report (and a patch), but AFAIK the bug has never been fixed. I upgraded everything except the kernel, without being sure I could boot it again (udev incompatibilities...). That's why the machine was no longer rebooted. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
