Sure, no problem with that. But in that case, since you did an actual install, an installation-reports bug would have been appropriate. Also, if you think it's the same bug, why not file additional info on 655505 instead of filing a new bug? (Though looking at that bug now, it would probably be better to reassign to the kernel if your suspicions that it's a kernel issue are correct. It doesn't seem like a bug in the installer.) > Because I use the netbook daily for work now, I don't install a new > release at my own risk.

And no problem with that, either. However, booting a live image is not an install, so an installation-reports bug is not appropriate. > For testing a beta release of Wheezy it would be good if you create > an official live built image rather than to force the user to make > an installation. And as soon as we (speaking for the debian-live team, now) can, we will, of course. The fact that we have not yet should tell you something. (It is not from lack of caring that they are not there yet.) Meanwhile, please file bugs against appropriate (pseudo-)packages to help us track issues better. Had this particular issue been a problem with the live build service or live build toolchain, the live team might not know it because they generally do not follow the live-boot list. The only reason I even discovered that this involved a live image is because you put "netbook" in the subject which is a particular interest of mine. I do not want to discourage you from filing reports. It is much appreciated. I am just concerned about them being misdirected so they don't get attention, or else needlessly tie up time being reviewed by the wrong team. I hope you understand. Back on-topic again, in 655505 you talked about Knoppix cheatcodes. In response, you were told how to blacklist modules. Did you try that? It seems the most fruitful line of inquiry here would be to close out this bug and reassign that one to the kernel, continuing to try to narrow down what it is about the kernel that hates your hardware.
