Ok, cloning the bug to track that.

This looks like bug#642911, which does not seem to be fixed in squeeze
yet.  What versions (including Debian revision number) did you test?
Do you happen to know which commit fixes it?  Please also attach
output from "reportbug --template linux-image-$(uname -r)", so we can
see some information about your hardware.
