Well, that article is very interesting indeed. So, I ended upgrading to Squeeze and everything is working fine. I'm not experimenting the weird behavior with the display so it begins to assure me that the problem could come from the DeviceKit implementation, exactly the devicekit-power package. In fact, the devicekit-power package in Squeeze breaks the gnome-power-manager < 2.27.5 (Squeeze gnome-power-manager is 2.24.4-3), and the gnome-power-manager for Sid (2.28.1-2) depends on, if you didn't guess yet, devicekit-power >= 008. My next move will be upgrade to Sid and try to see if my theory is right (or at least part of it) by upgrading gnome-power-manager and see if that provokes the behavior again. What do you think?. Thanks, Ernesto. _______________________________________________ Debian-eeepc-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-eeepc-devel
