LinuxQuestions.org - Seg fault (vbetool start) Debian Etch

Hya,

My Penguin (Debian Etch on Toshiba laptop Satellite Kernel 2.6.17.14) complains at boot saying Segfault at vbesave.
reproduced error message is

Code:

# /etc/init.d/vbesave start

Saving VESA state...Allocated buffer at 0x11010 (base is 0x0)

ES: 0x1101 EBX: 0x0000

./vbesave: line 12:  2467 Segmentation fault      vbetool vbestate save >$VBESTATE

.

#

I reinstalled acpi-support package, but no success. Also, web search went without success. I am not sure when this message started. It was middle of startup messages.:eek:

Any suggestion will be appreciated!

Happy Penguins!
