Comment 10 for bug 136380

unggnu, the patch is waiting for sponsorship - see bug 193842.

I've now uploaded the package again into my PPA, where you can test-install it from (wait for version 0.106blueyedppa4 to appear there):
https://edge.launchpad.net/~blueyed/+archive?field.name_filter=acpi-support&field.status_filter=published
It would help if you can verify that the fix works for you. Thank you.

Otherwise, I'm quite positive that the fix will make it into Hardy.
