Comment 9 for bug 112120

Any updates on this yet? Even after upgrading to all the latest packages, the problem still persists. I tried disabling most ACPI functions in the BIOS and I installed KPowersave, and now my ethernet card no longer shuts down randomly, but a few odd things continue to happen here and there, such as the hard drive spinning out of control and locking up the system.

It seems that frequency scaling is completely disabled for my CPU, so I can't change the settings for that in KPowersave. The patch doesn't work for me so I was wondering if there is a fixed package available for amd64 yet?

Any help would be appreciated!
