Package: laptop-mode-tools
Version: 1.70-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I'm in a Acer Emachines EM355, with Debian Testing. In the last dist-upgrade,
the last week, I end with a mostly unusable machine. The symptom was that at
the boot put some messages about some services than didn't start, and ends in a
console login without more explanations. Later I know that the root filesystem
was mounted read-only, and that I can mount it read-write, but in every boot it
mounts read-only...
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I investigate some things, but it was hard to know. I try to install passed
versions of systemd, udev...
In some moment, I realized that the battery was to be exhausted, and I put the
box on AC... Later reboot, and all was good!! Miracle :-D
This carry me to investigate in the powersaving packages, and view that laptop-
mode-tools has an update with some tings related to boot. I uninstall it an
voila! The box boot in all the cases.
Now I installed the old version 1.70-2 from snapshot.debian.org, and it works
good for me.
* What was the outcome of this action?
I spend some hours looking at this problem. But now all is working well with
this old version. I hope that you can fix the problem in the new version.
Many thank for your hard work. Excuse my bad english. Greetings. Martintxo.
