Right, an obvious oversight on my part. The source for the builds is
kept at 
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=dtchen/ubuntu-karmic.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/powerdown.

Thanks,
Dan

I know that this is a very pedantic point, but when distributing kernel 
builds (or, indeed, any other GPLed code) it's helpful to include the 
source (or a pointer to the source) alongside it - otherwise you're 
personally responsible for providing the source to that precise binary 
for the next three years in accordance with the written offer you need 
to ship with or in the binary.

Call for Testers: Karmic kernel with sound controller powerdown fixes

2009-07-25 Thread Daniel Chen
Hi all,

Some time ago, I asked[0] for bugs to be reported against Karmic's
sound drivers as we move toward improved power savings. Those of you
running Karmic on HDA hardware should notice improvements in a test
kernel[1]. If you have already filed a bug using the instructions in
[0], please follow up in your bug report whether - and to what degree
- the test kernel alleviates the popping anomalies.

Of particular interest are experiences of netbook owners, e.g., people
testing Kubuntu Netbook Edition.

Note that only an amd64 kernel is available presently. I am building
an i386 one real soon now. Please remember to verify the SHA512SUMs of
the downloaded packages.

Thanks,
Dan
