Package: linux-image-2.6.18-2-686 Version: 2.6.18-5 Severity: grave With the kernel from linux-image-2.6.18-2-686, fans for my laptop (HP nc6120) don't work anymore after an S3 suspend/resume cycle. This causes the system to spontaneously shutdown under load causing data loss (or posibly it might even break the hardware), ergo the grave severity.
This issue is known by kernel upstream [1], and is at least partly fixed in 2.6.19-rc4. I've been using the patches of [1] on my Ubuntu install on this same laptop (just switched it over to debian yesterday) for weeks, and they fixed the problem for me. I propose that these patches are applied for etches default kernel.
