Package: linux-image-2.6-686
Version: 2.6.26+17+lenny1
Severity: normal
On my laptop Asus A6L the module 'video' from the acpi subsystem
always craches with the official kernel image 2.6-686. The relevant
system message is reproduced below. This has bin so ever since I
conducted a distupgrade from Etch in May.
Without any counter measure the proc filesystem contains a visible
duplicate of
/proc/acpi/video/VGA/.
The duplicate filesystem trees are carrying identical inode-numbers
for all contained entries.
The remedy to blacklist 'video' in /etc/modprobe.d/ remove the
crash message (and /proc/acpi/video/), and seems not to affect
the running sustem in any manner what so ever.

Hi,
your bug has been filed against the "linux-2.6" source package and was filed for
a kernel older than the recently released Debian 7.0 / Wheezy with a severity
less than important.
We don't have the ressources to reproduce the complete backlog of all older kernel
bugs, so we're closing this bug for now. If you can reproduce the bug with Debian Wheezy
or a more recent kernel from testing or unstable, please reopen the bug by sending
a mail to control@bugs.debian.org with the following three commands included in the
mail:
reopen BUGNUMBER
reassign BUGNUMBER src:linux
thanks
Cheers,
Moritz
