   dists/sid/linux-2.6/debian/patches/series/11
Log:
ACPI-blacklist certain HP laptop models (nx6125, nx6325, nc6120, and
related) that are known to be incompatible with the ACPI implementation in
2.6.18, to prevent problems with memory leaks and heat stress at the expense
of battery control and S3 suspend support.  Closes: #400488, #404143.
