Hi Josselin,

I am unsure from the above if the unrelated is the total bug, or the
below info, which i provided only in an informative way, since it may be
related to the event handling (but then i am rather clueless in x86
hardware and acpi).

Anyway, i suppose you meant the power button info here.

Well, i did an apt-get dist-upgrade, if not everything got upgraded,
this may be a migration bug ?

$ dpkg -l | grep acpi
ii  acpi                                       0.09-4 displays information on ACPI devices
ii  acpi-support                               0.103-5 scripts for handling many ACPI events
ii  acpi-support-base                          0.103-5 scripts for handling base ACPI events such as the power button
ii  acpid                                      1.0.4-7.1 Utilities for using ACPI power management

This seems to be the latest version, accordying to the pts.
