Severity: critical
Justification: causes serious data loss


Hi, 

I had my machine who was hanging without any reason. I checked the log: 
nothing unusual before hang up excepot some fancy errors about voltage 
(-5V is not monitored by the hardware but was between -6.7 and -6.0 in 
the soft  monitor (sane interval is -6.0--4.0) . I suspected a hardware 
problem : I put the disks in a PII/III box and it was running OK (but 
slowly indeed) . I ran a freeBSD on the athlon box and it ran OK, no 
hang up.
I changed the alimentation : same hangup :-(
I then changed the mobo, as i had sometime litle problems with ide 
detect and so. It is 
a slightly different motherboard (old one was an asus, new one is an 
msi) but hangs up still happenned.

I then reinstall the system, using same unsane practice (experimentaal 
and unstable system packages and so...) and it hanged up again.

I reinstalled the system again, keeping carefully stable kernel and 
testing system, it worked fine then when I updated acpi* due to a new 
version in testing the system hanged up again...
I cannot be sure that acpi is guilty but it is a good candidate.

Hang up : the screen is frozen on its state (any of X display, virtual 
console. The machine is no longer present on the network, the keyboard 
does not replys disk access stay on the same state, soft off does not 
work...
