--- Comment #23 from James <jam...@jamesc.co.nz> 2009-12-08 23:59:24 --- I apologize for hijacking this bug report, I don't think my issue was related. I did think it was when I originally added my post) I think I found what the cause was for my problem posted at "Comment #15" http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14529#c15 I am putting it here as well in case someone else is looking for an answer to the issue I described problem. The kernel option acpi_osi="Linux" used to be the "fix" with my Ubuntu install. I migrated to Debian with a squeeze/sid installation and the "fix" stopped working. I was stumped. GRUB. With GRUB 2 you edit '/etc/default/grub' then run 'update-grub'. This is the line that _is_ working for me: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi_osi=\"Linux\"" Note the escape characters. Previously I wasn't escaping the quotations therefore the quotes in the kernel option were being stripped when they were then written to /boot/grub/grub.cfg .
