according to git accept4 has been added into 2.6.36 and according to the squeeze changelog, it has been added into the 2.6.32-35 kernel. > > this is a long-standing issue, it would be good to have it sorted out. If you're running debian kernels (the 3.2 from wheezy or any kernel newer than 2.6.32-35 on squeeze), it should already be fine. If you're running any other kernel, I don't see how it can be handled. At least disabling the accept4 syscall for every kernels doesn't seem a good idea. > i had to track down a suitable replacement kernel plus the > installation instructions, of course it's not a kernel from debian, > and the recommended one of course wifi didn't work. i ended up here: > http://www.spinifex.com.au/plugs/dphowtowificl.html off-topic (it's not related to udev): if the wifi is not working, please check if it's working with newer kernels and if not, please report to libertas devs so that they can try to fix it, otherwise it's never going to be fixed.
