Well, I guess one way of dealing with bugs is to ignore them until they
cease to be a problem. Unfortunately this mechanism might not always
keep the users satisfied.

You reported a bug against the Linux kernel (version 2.6.8) that was
shipped with Debian 3.1 (sarge). Since Debian 3.1 is no longer
supported and the kernel has changed so much that it would be very
difficult to verify every outstanding bug from 2.6.8, I'm hereby
closing your bug report.
If you still see this issue with the kernel from the upcoming release
of Debian (lenny, version 5.0), then please me know and I'll be happy
to reopen this bug report.
Thanks.
