Dunno what to do with that, I can't even tell if you're not a HP pavillon as in [2]. As I made sure to fully be clear about with my last kernel problem, could you tell us which 3.9.x exactly was the first to break for you? I made absolutely sure it was 3.10.6 which was the first that broke for me and I found the fix in the arch forums [0], I just believe there's quite an importance in knowing this - as it also would shorten down bisecting kernel-git quite a bit. Look, similar issues can be found in [1], [2] and [3] at least. To be very unfair, seriously, you took your time to speak up... cheers! mar77i [0] https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1319586 [1] https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1299482 [2] https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/34358 [3] https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/35188
