Public bug reported: Hello Canonical,
there are important kernel modules that are required on POWER systems, and they are currently on the linux-image-extra packages. So, in this case, every Power system needs to install the -extra package, which makes the -extra package required. Our suggestion is to add these important modules to the main kernel package, so we do not require the installation of the -extra package. One round of additions was already completed. But we verified some modules we need were missing, so we are hereby requesting a 2nd round of module additions to linux-image main package of Xenial and Yakkety (and all future releases). The list is: (AST stack) 1. ast 2. i2c-core 3. sysfillrect 4. syscopyarea 5. sysimgblt 6. fb_sys_fops 7. drm 8. drm_kms_helper 9. ttm 10. i2c-algo-bit 11. kvm 12. kvm_pr 13. kvm_hv 14. vmx_crypto 15. at24 16. nvmem_core 17. cmdlinepart 18. input_leds 19. uio 20. uio_pdrv_genirq 21. ofpart (USB stack) 22. usb_storage 23. uas 24. hid 25. hid_generic 26. usbhid Thanks in advance, Guilherme ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Assignee: Taco Screen team (taco-screen-team) Status: New ** Tags: architecture-ppc64le bugnameltc-150333 severity-high targetmilestone-inin16041 ** Tags added: architecture-ppc64le bugnameltc-150333 severity-high targetmilestone-inin16041 ** Changed in: ubuntu Assignee: (unassigned) => Taco Screen team (taco-screen-team) ** Package changed: ubuntu => linux (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1655002 Title: Move some kernel modules to the main kernel package (part 2) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1655002/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
