  Bug#405157: initramfs-tools: Typo in man page for initramfs.conf         


Author: Reuben Thomas
Date: Dec 31, 2006 20:00

Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.85e
Severity: minor

"The default is to boot of an local media" ->
"The default is to boot from a local device"

(I changed media to device because "media" is plural, and "medium" is
confusing.)

  Bug#364167: missing sound drivers (were in 2.6.8 but gone in 2.6.17 and above)         


Author: Brian White
Date: Dec 31, 2006 12:30

I, too, have noticed that since 2.6.8, some OSS drivers are missing.
For me specifically, "osssolo1.ko" is missing and my IBM ThinkPad needs it.

This module is present in 2.6.8 but that version is too old to support
udev and some other things.

Please include these modules if possible. Thanks!

Author:
Date: Dec 31, 2006 09:20

Package: linux-image-2.6.18-3-xen-vserver-686
Version: 2.6.18-8
Severity: important

at boot, when the pcmcia cards get initialized, the kernel freezes
entirely.

if i boot without the card inserted, it freezes upon insertion of the
card.

i have no problems with linux-image-2.6.18-3-vserver-686 (2.6.18-8).

card information:

pccardctl ident
Socket 0:
product info: "Lucent Technologies", "WaveLAN/IEEE", "Version 01.01", ""
manfid: 0x0156, 0x0002
function: 6 (network)

using:

  Bug#338405: another patch         


Author: Russell Coker
Date: Dec 30, 2006 19:00

The attached patch creates a new config option ONLY_BUSYBOX which can be set
if you want to use busybox instead of kinit. It saves over 200K of
compressed size on my system.

I believe that this should be included, it doesn't stop kinit being used,
merely provides another option.

  Bug#404447: nfs-kernel-server: Transferred files get corrupted         


Author: Ahmad Khayyat
Date: Dec 30, 2006 17:20

If it is indeed an ethernet driver issue, why does nfs cause errors when
transferring file _to_ to the server only?
Transfers from the server to the client cause absolutely no errors.

Sorry to nag you with this bug, but it is still there! Reading
through the patch I had mailed, I got the both files reversed. After
talking to a friend who is more into kernels and C, it is probably
better to put the reboot fixup for this...
