Bug#871216: debian/bin/test-patches does not build arch-indep packages

2017-08-06 Thread Joachim Breitner
Package: src:linux
Version: 4.12.2-1~exp1
Severity: normal

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

following the advice on
https://kernel-handbook.alioth.debian.org/ch-common-tasks.html
under “Simple patching and building” I used debian/bin/test-patches to
apply some patches I need to test. Unfortunately, this produces only the
arch dependent file:
../linux-headers-4.12.0-trunk-amd64_4.12.2-1~exp1a~test_amd64.deb
../linux-image-4.12.0-trunk-amd64_4.12.2-1~exp1a~test_amd64.deb
../linux-image-4.12.0-trunk-amd64-dbg_4.12.2-1~exp1a~test_amd64.deb
and linux-headers-4.12.0-trunk-amd64 depends on
linux-headers-4.12.0-trunk-common (= 4.12.2-1~exp1a~test)
which does not exist. Since the package version was adjusted, I cannot
just use the version of the archive.

I believe debian/bin/test-patches should also build the arch independent
packages, to produce an actually installable set of .debs.

Thanks,
Joachim

Bug#573483: linux-kbuild for kernels in experimental

2012-08-09 Thread Joachim Breitner
Hi,

> in sync ...

this is again the case right now, with 3.5 kernel headers uninstallable.
Is there a fix or work-around?

Greetings,
Joachim

as it does not seem to affect many people too badly, I’d rather not
worry about it.

I can’t remember (I disabled the touchpad and thus the problem would not
occur regularly). Is it important to find out whether squeeze is
affected, or can we just leave it at that, knowing that its fixed with
current kernels?

nothing seems to have change since 2010: I don’t see a
NULL-pointer-dereference, but when both touchpad and trackpoint are
enabled, the pointer sometimes gets stuck for a short while while dmesg
tells me:

I can prevent the problem by disabling the touchpad in the BIOS. This is
on 3.2.0-2.

I just had a real, unintentional OOM-situation again and now all my
fonts are garbled again (I hope I don’t make typos, I am typing this
semi-blind :-)), so the problem is definitely _not_ yet fixed in
unstable.

I tried to reproduce it by filling my memory beyond the swap space, but
the fonts are still fine. There is some corruption in the background
image of X, though, which could have the same cause.

I just tried it on my Thinkpad T400, and after loading the right modules
(i915 and radeon) with the right option (modeset=1), it worked as
advertised. No problem with X. I also second the request to enable this
option.
 
(I reverted to unstable’s kernel, though, because my iwlagn wireless
connection was instable with 2.6.34)

great, thanks.

Note that the next upload will go through NEW. If you don’t want a delay
when you actually want to refer to a new version, you should consider
uploading version 26 before the next kernel version bump.

Bug#347284: Meta-packages for latest doc and sources

2010-03-16 Thread Joachim Breitner
Hi,

I’d like to amend this wishlist bug report. I’d find it very useful to
have a linux-doc-2.6 meta package automatically pulling in the latest
-doc package, corresponding to the installed kernel. Same thing with a
linux-source-2.6 meta packages.

Are there any issues with this approach? Or is it just that someone has
to write the code?

Greetings,
Joachim

I still have the problem described in

so (for, to clarify it for those possibly reading this bug report), if
one gets 11 tuneable channels even though regdom was set to EU, it is a
limit in the eeprom that can not be overturned in software?

Thanks for your help,
Joachim

Bug#497971: This bugs affects lenny badly

2009-06-19 Thread Joachim Breitner
Package: linux-image-2.6.26-2-amd64
Version: 2.6.26-15lenny3

Hi,

my girlfriends laptop runs Debian Lenny. With the current kernel in
Lenny, she is unable to connect to a channel 13 network, using the
iwl3945 module.

I did try to set the regdom to EU via a file in /etc/moodprobe.d/, and
the parameter gets set (as can be seen
in /sys/modules/cfg80211/parameters/ieee80211_regdom), but it does not
have an effect on iwl3945 (as can be seen with iwlist wlan0 channel).

I think it is a severe issue not to be able to connect to such a channel
and, if possible, should be fixed in a lenny point release.

Thanks,
Joachim

Bug#509338: Correction to "NULL pointer dereference in psmouse"

2008-12-21 Thread Joachim Breitner
Hi,

correction: I had 
# echo -n alsp > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/protocol
in place. I’ll update this if it also happens with synaptics as the
protocol.

Greetings,
Joachim

Note that I’m affected by this bug:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8740
and I did set
# echo -n 1 > /sys/devices/platform/i8042/serio1/resetafter

I’m not sure if I did anything special to cause this. After this, the mouse
does not work any more, and
$ modprobe -r psmouse
hangs.


Greetings,
Joachim

I’m not sure about his. I am pretty sure the error messages came _after_
I entered the password the first time, but _before_ cryptsetup exits,
which I noticed when I entered the password wrong the first time, and
the second prompt came after the error messages.

I’ll make sure this observation is correct at the next boot.

Also, fgrepping the contents of my initramdisk for padlock, I only get:
./lib/modules/2.6.24-1-686/kernel/drivers/crypto/padlock-aes.ko.
./lib/modules/2.6.24-1-686/kernel/drivers/crypto/padlock-sha.ko.
./sbin/cryptsetup.
./usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8.

so no script is manually loading these.
