Re: Reporting Asus N73JF / Intel + Nvidia GT 425

 

So far, I've installed 2.6.37 on my m11x R2 and everything related to power
failed, I cant even suspend the laptop, when I turn the laptop ON again it
completely freezes the system (I'm using debian squeeze and building the
kernel with make-kpkg). Because of this, I was forced to rollback to
2.6.36.x.
