Hi Jonathan, 

I did as you adviced. First I installed the kernel version before. which is 
3.2.12-1-amd64, and the package is something with "bpo"v bin its name. I 
suppose bpo stand for backport. See:

uname -r
3.2.0-0.bpo.2-amd64

Then I added pcie_aspm=force to the commandline. With this added, I rebooted 
several times, but I could not manage to reproduce this bug again. Did you 
expect the bug with or without the added "pcie_asm=" switch?

It makes me not happy, when the reason cannot be found, although IMO your idea 
might be correct. In the changelog it was the only bugfix, which might be 
related to this bug.

On the other hand some other packages have been changed, too (i.e. libs), so 
they might also be responsible for this or partly responsible.

Best regards

Hans
