Bug#119184: ITP: laptop-net -- Tools for supporting built-in ethernet on laptops
Date: Sun, 11 Nov 2001 21:21:24 -0500 From: Matt Zimmerman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Does it work with other laptops, and if not, is it intended to in the future? It should work with any laptop whose network driver supports MII. (This includes virtually all modern network interfaces.) However, it's only been tested on the HP laptops, which use the 3c59x driver.

Bug#119184: ITP: laptop-net -- Tools for supporting built-in ethernet on laptops
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist This package contains programs to support the built-in ethernet of laptops. These programs start and stop the device; turn it on and off when the network cable is plugged or unplugged; and provide the ability to define different "schemes" for different network environments, and to switch between schemes. The package has been in use for several months by users of HP OmniBook laptops. It was developed by me and is licensed under the GPL. The package is available on my web server at http://www.swiss.ai.mit.edu/projects/omnibook/packages.php
Bug#119185: ITP: oss-preserve -- Program to save/restore OSS mixer settings
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist This package saves the OSS mixer settings into a file when the machine is shut down, and restores them from the file when it is restarted. It can optionally restore from a file of fixed settings in /etc/default/oss-preserve if it exists. The package has been in use for several months by users of HP OmniBook laptops. It was developed by me and is licensed under the GPL. The package is available on my web server at http://www.swiss.ai.mit.edu/projects/omnibook/packages.php

So this should be in Debian. Can you separate the library portion from the rest of the application? Making it a shared object is likely to save prospective work since it is very probable that other ICQ clients will use the new ICQ library.

I have a working package and will upload that via sponsor any day now. I was kind of hoping that dosemu would fix its policy violation first, which results in bochs depending on dosemu|vgafont instead of just the vgafont. Keep bugging me, its good to know someone else is intrested. May the Source be with you. Goswin

Of course I do, but this is the only one that integrates with the existing Debian network configuration. You have a way in /etc/network/interfaces to specify different configurations for a network interface, and to use an external command to choose the right one. Then you have THREE (maybe four) packages with a wonderful network detection routine, but NONE OF THEM can be used as that external command. For this reason, having a laptop and wanting to stay as close to the debian way as possible, I've just insulated their detection code and put it in a simple and small command that does the job, following the Unix tradition of doing things. Given guessnet, you could reimplement all the other similar packages with simple shell scripts (it could be an interesting idea for an examples directory, now that I think about it), but it would be a mess to use the other packages to provide a shell script that does for ifupdown what guessnet does.
