But this means that anyone who just updates the kernel without having the new firmware will lose their wireless. Not good. longterm is not supposed to break existing userland like this Possible would be a patch to try 5 first and then fall back to the older version. But that's not what this patch does, correct? -Andi _______________________________________________ stable mailing list [email protected] http://linux.kernel.org/mailman/listinfo/stable
