Re: Kernel 2.6.38 for squeeze

Am 17.04.11 06:01, schrieb Thomas Goirand:

I have an old laptop with a bad internal WiFi board, so I bought a newer
RaLink driver. To make it work, I had to add the option "rt2800usb -
Include support for rt33xx devices (EXPERIMENTAL)" and "rt2800usb -
Include support for rt35xx devices (EXPERIMENTAL)". These are not
activated in your build (I've just checked).

I believe that one of the most important point of running a backported
kernel is to have such drivers for newer hardware. Could you please
include the option above? The options to activate are as below:

CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT33XX
CONFIG_RT2800PCI_RT35XX
CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT33XX
CONFIG_RT2800USB_RT35XX

If you include the above options, I'll be able to test your backport
instead of the quick and dirty one that I did myself.


That's something that should be done in the package itself, not just in 
the backport. I added the debian-kernel mailinglist to CC, but you 
should just file a bugreport against the package in unstable.

I finally found time to upload drbd8 with the -source package dropped.

Do you intend to update the patch in linux-2.6 to drbd 8.3.8? If yes,
please ping me, so I can update the drbd8-utils package (I think I
should rename it to drbd-utils anyway) to 8.3.8 as well.

Bug#511085: 60 seconds timeout for ipconfig is not enough

2009-01-07 Thread Norbert Tretkowski
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.92n

Hi,

in 0.92m, the timeout for ipconfig in scripts/functions was set to 60
seconds. This broke our iscsi-rootfs setups.

It took me a while to debug this, but it seems that 60 seconds is not
enough for switches which have spanning-tree enabled, they need some
more time before they take up a port, in our case between 62 and 65
seconds.

Please raise the timeout to 90 or 120 seconds.

I don't know what you mean with "the last regular config update for
new kernel versions was for 2.6.16", but I wanted to upload a new
version of linux-latest-2.6, that's why I added myself as an uploader
(otherwise the upload would be an NMU).

Yes, I know. I have an update ready, but I didn't upload it yet

I have no chance to update the alpha configs before leaving to
debconf6, and I'm not sure if alpha available there, so I don't
know if I'm able to update the configs.

python2.4-minimal dependency

2006-04-30 Thread Norbert Tretkowski
Currently the linux-patch-debian-* and linux-support-* packages
depending on python2.4-minimal.

According[0] to Steve, the python-minimal package should not be
used as a dependency by other packages. I think it's the same for
python2.4-minimal.

That's because backports.org is based on testing, not unstable.

It's the same reason why 2.6.16 isn't available on backports.org yet,
but I already prepared updated linux-image, udev and initramfs-tools
backports on http://people.backports.org/~tretkowski/upload/

Indeed.

And automatic breakage when something in unstable breaks. That's why
we're using testing.

An updated version of kernel-package (and make as it's dependency) is
also needed.

It's currently not possible to build linux-2.6 with testing, because
2.6.15-4 build-depends on kernel-package (>= 10.029), but testing has
9.008.4. Looks like the testing scripts don't consider build-depends.

Last time I tried matroxfb on alpha (IIRC it was with 2.5.68), this
patch helped to get it working correctly:

ftp://platan.vc.cvut.cz/pub/linux/matrox-latest/

I thought that patch was integrated upstream already, but there's a

The kernel-source package is architecture independent, you can use the
one from unstable:

It's a separate backport of kernel-package.

There's also a udev backport. And I need to add a yaird/initramfs
backport when I add add the backport of 2.6.13.

Just for info, I already prepared a backport of linux-2.6 for
backports.org, but I used a backported kernel-package for the build.

2.6.8 is already marked for removal from unstable. Please use 2.6.12,
which works fine with gcc 4.0.

Sounds like a RC bug, so I'm setting it's severity to grave.

Too bad this bug didn't get realized when -16 was in unstable...
looks like it's too late to fix this for 3.1r0.
