@Andy: Are you sure about that? Comment 72 seems to directly contradict you here. I do not run natty, but on my maverick installation, I was bit by both the tpm issues and the blinking moon ones. The failure mode of the tpm issue is not a blinking moon. It starts to suspend and, after a second gives up, and wakes back up again. This has since been fixed as far as I can tell and otherwise requires a workaround to unload/reload the module. The failure mode of the other issue is that the machine begins to sleep but the moon never stops blinking and drawing power until you power cycle the machine and lose all your state; a far far worse bug. This has not been fixed and I have been forced to run with the chvt hack since I installed maverick. It appears that, until comment 65, this bug was not in any way related to the tpm issues.

I believe the other bug is a timing thing related DRI and graphics drivers. See comment 76.
