Hope we can get this in for Lenny. Loïc has indicated that he doesn't have time to do this NMU. Can someone else take this?

It might normalize which sampling rate / sample width is used Hi, Pardon me for resurrecting this slightly old thread but there's been an important development. Jeffrey Stedfast has resolved the esd deadlocking issues when used with PulseAudio. Among other things, this solves the Pidgin and Flash crashing problems (both of whom consume esd output while Pulse is running with -compat). http://jeffreystedfast.blogspot.com/2008/07/pulseaudio-i-told-you-so.html It appears that he also made a correct release by merging our downstream changes to libesd that were rotting in Gnome's Bugzilla. Loïc, you offered to NMU this package here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=422590 This vastly improves the Gnome sound situation. Hope we can get this in for Lenny.

It seems fixable; a manual invocation of update-initramfs -k all -u in the /target with /target/proc and /target/sys mounted before the first reboot fixes the issue. Also, when forced to use the LILO boot loader because of a RAID +LVM /boot, LILO takes *forever* to actually load the initramfs from the physical media. Parade of dots followed by BIOS data check successful occurs while waiting. Also, by default, CPU frequency scaling is disabled for desktop installs. This should be turned on; we are trying to save the world after all, aren't we? 130,000+ Debian users with CPU Frequency scaling enabled would save a lot of energy with no noticible impact to desktop performance.

patching a package?
Third try posting this. Something is wrong with Debian's mail server? Sorry, I'm new to the dpkg system. I looking around on the web site and couldn't seem to find good docs on this specific issue. Appologies if I missed it. I want to take a Debian source package and make a few changes to do it and then recompres it and test it. If it works I want to generate a patch which I can send to the maintainer. What would be the best way to do this? signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
kudos to ftp-masters
Yes, seriously. We always complain about the NEW queue. I would just like to give some kudos to ftp-masters dealing so well with the bumpy xorg transition and for taking us down from 180 packages last week to 90 this week. Keep up the good work, guys. pgpr8qByuBRfe.pgp Description: PGP signature
