Follow up to hpacucli does not work on kernel 3.0 – wrapper workaround uname26:
There is another unofficial debian repository where we can get newer versions of the hp tools (like for debian, hpacucli is still 8.7.0 and does not like 3.x kernels).

According to reports, hpacucli in 9.2.0 now fully supports 3.x kernels.
