--- Begin Message ---Version: 3.4.1-1~experimental.1+rm Debian 6.0 Long Term Support has now ended, and the 'linux-2.6' source package will no longer be updated. This bug is being closed on the assumption that it does not affect the kernel versions in newer Debian releases. If you can still reproduce this bug in a newer release, please reopen the bug report and reassign it to 'src:linux' and the affected version of the package. You can find the package version for the running kernel by running: uname -v or the versions of all installed kernel packages by running: dpkg -l 'linux-image-[34]*' | grep ^.i and looking at the third column. I apologise that we weren't able to provide a specific resolution for this bug. Ben. -- Ben Hutchings - Debian developer, member of Linux kernel and LTS teams
