I sent Latitude 2120 to my friend Ayan in Florida as a gift. :-)

I do not have an exact the same one now. However on Latitude 2110 the same issue is seen.

I think I worked on the bug before and there is a patch:
 (http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=lexical/lexical-maverick.git;a=commitdiff;h=de63c70b9fb1560b42646365922169a841d5ac5b),

it is not upstream because it was just a workaround and later I have the issue fixed after BIOS upgrade.

But I cannot find the BIOS image with the same version I have in Dell website; probably is because the one I have is not an official release.

However can one having the hardware test the following one:

will be appreciated if the `sudo dmidecode` log is posted here for reference too.
