Hi Jack

I experienced a similar problem under HP Pavilion ze5000. The 
corresponding bug report can be found at

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=314183

It would be nice if you can also contribute to that bug report (or open 
another one if you feel so). This might increase the chance of getting 
it fixed in the future.
