schestowitzYeah, I share your pain. I also have a nasty bug in recent kernel version which is being used in Wheezy/Testing. I reported it, but: 1. they say I'm probobly the only one who has that problem 2. they say my hardware is too old, so they don't want to waste time on fixing bugs for the recent kernel.Mar 11 17:49
schestowitzTBH, the second answer shocked me.Mar 11 17:49
schestowitzNot being able to do anything else, I finally ended on a version -1 [previous kernel version], and everything works fine. Versions 3.8 works fine, too.Mar 11 17:49
schestowitzSo, other than that problem [which - btw - was a deal breaker, as it was freezing my whole OS] and my outrage on some Debian developers, I am really enjoying that OS.Mar 11 17:49
