You think he’ll have a problem getting Debian to even look at a bug report for their stable series? Do you have any evidence to back that up, or do you not understand what a Linux distribution is?

The problem was not in Debian's kernel update, as I suspected. Otherwise, more of those error stories would have been found. It was an incompatibility between my (quite old) smb.conf and that new kernel.

Actually, I don't know if Debian would have reacted to a bug report about that. I wouldn't have opened one without being sure that there is no problem in my installation or my configuration -- and it was in the latter.
