Package: linux-image-2.6.12-1-powerpc
Version: 2.6.12-5
Severity: important

There seems to be a serious bug (might be related to pmu) in 2.6.12.

Reports in debian-powerpc mailing list mention that the problem did not exist
in previous versions of the kernel (2.6.8/2.6.9) but it is present in 2.6.12

The machine (ibook g4 12") randomly switches off forcing a restart of the
system and loosing any data of the open application.

Seems to be related to pmu since when powered on the date shows back to 1904
(if i remember right).

Today it happened when i unplugged the computer from the power suply and went
on battery. I noticed that the framebuffer did not answer to "raise the bright
level" (fn-f2) key, and few seconds after it died on me.

If more info is needed, please, request.
