KMail has problems directly sending a reportbug e-mail file including 
headers (see: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89882). I did not find 
an easy way to add these two headers manually, mutt is not set up and my

Hello,

The kernel from this package doesn't boot on my IBM ThinkPad T23 laptop 
with 1.13 GHz Mobile Pentium 3 and 384 MB RAM. After GRUB loads the 
kernel and the screen is blanked it will stay blank. I waited some 
minutes, but nothing happens. This also happened sometimes with 2.6.7, 
but most of the time it works. I never had this problem with 2.6.6. 
Earlier versions of the 2.6.8 kernel-image packages (2.6.8-1 and 2.6.8-2) 
worked correctly, but CD burning with "K3b" did only work as "root" on 
this configuration. I updated to the latest 2.6.8 kernel-image package to 
see if it fixes that problem and to see whether ACPI works better. But 
well my machine won't boot with it.

Since I ran Kernel 2.6.7 I installed a Teac DVD burner, model DV-W24EW. 
The installation of that device may be related to the problem, as I 
didn't experience any boot problems with 2.6.7 before. However I am able 
to burn CDs and DVDs just fine with this burner (with 2.6.7) provided 
that 2.6.7 does boot (which is most of the time).

This is what I use in GRUB to start the Debian Linux system:

###Don't change this comment - YaST2 identifier: Original name: linux###
title Debian Linux
    kernel (hd0,4)/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda5 vga=791
    initrd (hd0,4)/initrd.img

This is from a GRUB installed by SUSE Linux 9.1, I didn't get around 
setting up a Debian GRUB installation yet.

This is the PCI hardware in my system:

Thanks for your feedback, I'm closing this bugreport.

Keep in mind that we want to release sarge with 2.6.8.
