2.6.12-7 upload ? How far away is 2.6.13-1 ?
Hello, I think it should be time we did a 2.6.12-7 upload, with all the fixes that those bring in, especially the powerpc64 nvidiafb disabling one, before we do 2.6.13-1. Not so sure about the 2.6.13-1 status, it should work just fine with yaird (i am using it here now), and i was really impressed about yaird, it did detect all my stuff from the start, including the input device, the filesystem drivers and so on, but i guess most here are more interested in initramfs-tools, because of the ubuntu connection maybe ? Anyway, i am in favour of doing a 2.6.12-7 upload tomorrow or so, so if anyone has anything to say about this, please do so now.

I have just added the relevant portions of 2.6.13.1 and 2.6.13.2 to SVN, which was the main thing I have outstanding for 2.6.12-7. The other thing I would like to look at is the various configure option requests we have floating about. That will probably require a bit of hacking of split-config to be able to do easily. And I'm happy for this to wait until post 2.6.12-7. Any indication if 2.6.12-8 is likely to happen? I'll focus any changes that I have on 2.6.13-1 until I hear otherwise. Lastly, its a 3-day week here in Japan. That means less time for me to do stuff, and I'm run off my feet standing still. So please ping me on IRC if you need something. -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Thanks, ... Does that mean that 2.6.12-7 is actually releasable ? Anyone has more comment on it or stuff he wants to go in ? If there is nothing of the sort, i will upload those on tomorrow. > The other thing I would like to look at is the various configure > option requests we have floating about.

Hopefully there will be no 2.6.12-8, and we will be able to move directly to 2.6.12-1, so your plan sounds good. > Lastly, its a 3-day week here in Japan.

The patch resolves a problem introduced between 2.6.12 and 2.6.13 when variable FIB size support was added. See Linus' Git tree 7c00ffa314bf0fb0e23858bbebad33b48b6abbb9 for that change. -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

I have made an i386 build of what is currently in SVN, its version is 2.6.12-6.hls.2005092100, but the version is the only thing I changed, just to distinguish it from the official upload. http://packages.vergenet.net/testing/linux-2.6/ -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

As for if it is ready for upload? I am not sure. You are the one propmoting uploading 2.6.12-7. I certainly think that the addition of the 2.6.13.1 and 2.6.13.2 patches that I added makes it more ready for upload. So if you though it was ready yesterday, then yes, its ready today. I'm doing a 2.6.12-7 build now. I'm happy to upload this if others are happy. But I am still not entierly sure why there is a push to get 2.6.12-7 ready, and thus I am not entirely sure what it should include. -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

FWIW, I would like to see 2.6.12-7 as basis for the mips kernels in the next days. Thiemo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

I spoke a bit more to Sven about this on IRC, and it looks like we will go ahead with what we have. I have the binaries built (i386) and will upload once I get a final go-ahead from Sven. I even tested that they boot and am running one of them now :) -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

We can do a 2.6.12-8 for it then, since i want to include the powerpc-small miboot kernel too. What is your take on that ? Can you come discuss your plans with us on #debian-kernel (oftc).

I hope to fix the remaining issues which should not happen in an kernel from unstable in the next days here in Oldenburg. So I don't need the newer kernel-source immediately but in the next 3-4 days, earlier is better but don't feel pressed to rush something.
