Dear Maintainers,

I can confirm that the produce outlined by Claude Heiland-Allen six
months ago fixes the problem with power saving mode crashing the X.org
server on my ancient Asus EeePC 1005PE (amd64, with Atom N450). The
commit hash is a different one from Claude's message, you have to use
upstream commit 0b8b5f2c. [1][2]

Could you please be so kind to include this upstream patch in the next
point-release of Debian Stable, 13.6?

Many thanks in advance,
Laurentiu
