--- Begin Message ---Hi This bug was filed for a (very) old kernel or the bug is old itself without resolution. Maybe it was for a feature enablement which nobody acted on. We are sorry we were not able to timely deal with this issue. There are many open bugs for the src:linux package and thus we are closing older bugs where it's unclear if they still occur in newer versions and are still relevant to the reporter. For an overview see: https://bugs.debian.org/src:linux . If you can reproduce your issue with - the current version in unstable/testing - the latest kernel from backports or, if it was a feature addition/wishlist and still consider it relevant, then: Please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control for details. Please try to provide as much fresh details including kernel logs where relevant. In particular were an issue is coupled with specific hardware we might ask you to do additional debugging on your side as the owner of the hardware. Regards, Salvatore
