These uploads most notably contain a rebase to upstream stable v3.5.5, updated Highbank patches, additional Haswell graphics support patches, packaging updates for signed kernels, misc bug fixes, and minor config updates. With Kernel Freeze now in effect, only patches which adhere to the SRU policy will be applied. Additionally, only critical bug fixes will warrant an upload at this time as we approach our final release. As usual, we intend to land these kernel in the ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/q-lts-backport PPA to facilitate testing of the 12.10 kernel in 12.04.

[Lubuntu] Release Meeting 2012-10-05
Hi, === What was done engineering wise? === * Working on the new file manager update * Fixes for the lubuntu software-center === What's about to land that might impact the other teams and release as a whole? === * Nothing === Summary of bugs working on by team (reasonably reliable) === * (Bug:1059845) : New upstream release of pcmanfm / libfm * Several lxkeymap bugs (Bug:1014049, Bug:996588, Bug:996590, Bug:1017249) === Dependencies on other teams to make deliverables, blocking items, release wide concerns? === * Some artwork problems remains with the versions of unico and / or gtk3 in quantal (black borders on various widgets, active control ignoring the X ...). If we can have some help, at least to know which change we need to do on our theme, that would help us. See bug 1043129 for detail and discussion.

Re: [QA] Release Meeting 2012-10-05
As requested by Kate in the release meeting this morning, here's a quick summary of some testing I did today on panda: - On server, the missing keyboard support during install is confirmed fixed now - Hit a few new bugs, and an old one on desktop. The most troubling one at the moment is that none of the libreoffice apps work. I can reproduce this 100% of the time here, but would appreciate someone confirming this. [desktop] * [Bug 1062448] [NEW] soffice.bin crashed with SIGSEGV in lucene::index::IndexFileNames::fileNameFromGeneration() * [Bug 1062440] [NEW] PandaBoard audio loud pops after playing sound over headphone jack * [Bug 1062428] [NEW] omap4 desktop install image sometimes boots without keyboard working * [Bug 960770] Packages requiring dkms at Pandaboard (omap 4) will also pull linux-headers-generic because current dkms dependencies Thanks, Paul Larson signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature -- Ubuntu-release mailing list Ubuntu-release@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-release
