expected.
null, we want to move on.

you need to build it against backported linux-2.6.
also beside some acpid trouble (related to some reliance of old /proc
stuff) linux-2.6 from 2.6.33 just installs fine in testing.
as of course does linux-libc-dev (Lenny stuff will have trouble
to compile against it, so keep it in a chroot).
 
thank you
